There are a few bona-fide scholars in there. I think the idea is to list writers who have large popular followings, the sort who are very influential and end up being regurgitated uncritically by lots of people.

In other words, writers/people popular among pseuds, not pseuds who write.

For example I love Harold Bloom but have not read a single other author on the subject of lit crit. He's also been a bad boy by listing off his opinions in bullet point, meaning any dumbass can read a chapter of his on Cervantes and suddenly feel knowledgable enough to speak with authority on him.

But he does restrain himself often, and forces the reader to think between the lines at least.

Schumpeter just used the word ‘rhetor’ in explaining the sociological origins of intellectuals.

I think that’s a pretty nice word. :3

The point of the image is to trigger as many people as possible. Some versions include canonical philosophers.

These are people from all over the spectrum of politics and ideas.

What would you consider to be a positive example of an intellectual rhetorician?

Who isn't a pseudo-intellectual rhetorician? If you were to speak right now, to all of us, about what you believe or if you were to explain something - anything - would we not consider you a "pseudo-intellectual"?

I understand this is kind of a meme graphic designed to spark shit flinging, but if that's the case, why isn't Tucker Carlson on there. He's pretty popular (I actually like him at times), and would be another face to add to invoke autistic spergery. Just a thought.
