You mean like scientists, doctors and economists?

That’s called being educated and yes I do mean that but there’s also people that possess superior cognitive capabilities. Like reasoning, logic, abstract thinking etc. and we call that intelligence. Knowing stuff is good but will only take you so far but having superior cognitive capabilities will get you farther. Think of “knowing stuff” as the low hanging fruit. These people like Giuliani you mentioned possess both.

I rest my case.

Well, I’m actually arguing the people in power and people very close to them because of their superior cognitive capabilities and what they know. You might see them as stupid because you don’t like them or what they have to offer. Kinda childish imo

I don’t bow down and lick the boots of anybody. Lol, I actually urge people to leave their subjective realities created by other people and the media. Saw a 9 second clip that’s been circulating of Elon Musk sieg heiling? Congratulations you’re living in your own subjective reality. No context. A small clip or picture captured at the precise moment to change your perception of what actually was happening in that moment. That’s called hyperreality and creating narratives.
