anti-intellectualism is good when the left does it and bad when the right does it, you see

holy moly @hausofdecline.bsky.social in @inthesetimes.com ???

also probably unintentional but “weird monied elite with strange facial features doesn’t care about the Real Common People (you know, us)” is a reactionary cliche

very tired of pretending that dismissing modern economics is somehow more reasonable than dismissing vaccines. if you’re not an expert, you don’t get to pick and choose parts of a field to believe! you have no way to tell between legitimate and illegitimate results in that field!

I miss critiques like "economics assumes humans are perfectly rational actors!" which is, at least, a valid critique (that mainstream economics integrated decades ago) now it's just, "but grocery prices are up!" good observation bud
