Based on the people that I have met in my life I wonder how people with such shitty politics and views on marginalized communities can have so many friends and be so smart in STEM, the intelligetsia? (lemmy.ml)

Like you might think that abstract intelligence and social intelligence might carry over solidarity instead of making people more shitty in that regard. How does that even work? Why does people like that coast in life while those who they seem lesser than them suffer?

This makes me wonder many times how will we win, when these are the people with the power and the intelligetsia is working over time for them

    Their system is not functional and destroys itself by its very nature. Everything they do is a fortress built on sand in the long term.
