@maija @Simpadoo @apropos @BadFediPosts How will you maintain society without intellectuals? Besides, there exists differences in intellectual capacity. Others deserve to be on top of others.

@apropos @maija @BadFediPosts An intellectual in gender studies is completely dispensable. Nowadays, a lot of doctors are and a lot of Academia with their faked studies are also dispensable, and the innovations of this day brought by people with no college degrees begs the question: What are modern intellectuals good for?

@nerthos @Simpadoo @apropos @BadFediPosts @maija It's true because Maija kills babies on sight once out of the womb if their first cries are in French.

@Forestofenchantment @Simpadoo @apropos @BadFediPosts @maija The issue is that this term is badly defined.
The faggot who sips tea and spends all day reading classical literature is *not* keeping society afloat. Engineers, however, *do*. Anyone reasonable can draw that distinction, and blurring the lines here is a little disingenuous.

@ceo_of_monoeye_dating @Simpadoo @apropos @BadFediPosts @maija I'm talking about intellectuals who in traditional societies performed duties that required training from a young age, financial advisor to the king and whatnot.
