No, that's just how philosophers are. Their narcissistic tirades about how they would be perfect rulers are not to be taken seriously.
Remember, never take an idealized political utopia at face value.

Fair; utopia by definition is impossible. Anyone who claims otherwise is either mad or lying.
As long as he would follow Aristotle,i have no problems with it.Plato follower would lead to building Utopia on Earth,which always mean bad things.

She expects to be among the people deciding what counts as misinformation. They all do.
And they're all idiots. You can never put that genie back in the lamp.

They think they will be the only ones to use it and forget what angry people can get up too.

They forget what their own allies can do.
Usually notching.Most uprising was crushed by elites.
Purges,purges everywhere.It always happen among leftists.They should fear not bad white christians,but another wealthy leftist.
Her equivalents in Britain thought that. And were right. I see no indication the tool will ever backfire in their hands. At most, they might be hanged from lampposts when the revolution comes, but that's not getting locked up for misinformation. And I don't see the revolution happening in Britain either.

Bruh, they are the revolution. Specifically, the revolutionaries after they've won the capital and are rooting out the counter-revolutionaries and reactionaries.
And no, it will backfire. But only once they've gotten rid of us. Because once that happens, everyone will start eyeing each other and wondering whose vision of the revolution should come out on top.....and meanwhile, the pragmatic power hungry psychos are plotting to root out all the True Believers and rule as tyrants.

misinformation means "truth that goes against the current propaganda narrative of the ruling powers". therefore her lies about trump are not misinformation.
Oh, I know. They're lies. Plain and simple.

This is one of the few times we agree.

Matt Walsh: "Taking a sick day as an adult should be pretty embarrassing for you."
Fuck off Walsh, I've only used my sick days twice in my 4 years in my current job, 0 in two previous ones, and once in my first job, all for just medical visits I can't reschedule outside of worktime or for medical situations where I literally can't move or have been told by my bosses to go home and take a sick leave, and even I don't want the local workaholic asshole passing his cold or flu or whatever disgusting shit they have on to me. And if they're lying just to get out of work, well then I hope they enjoy not having any sick days for the medical visits when they actual get something serious.
"Oh, but Walsh is just saying you shouldn't be abusing it."
If that was what he meant then why the fuck say "adults don't have time to be sick". You know who has that attitude? Your average overworked, overstressed unhealthy Japanese salaryman who's lucky to have a few hours to see his family, let alone a doctor. If I wanted to be a corpo slave that has to work even if I'm dying I'll go back to Japan and work for some black company over there.

Walsh is interesting, because he has some actually based opinions and ideas…but the man can’t resist occasionally going full boomercon with opinions that make you want to beat him with a wet pool noodle.
100 percent this
His take on video games is...yeah.
This one is even worse, because in some fields getting people sick can actually get people killed (like preventing people being at thier peak to do thier jobs. A lot of Blue collar) so..
