    It’s even dumber than his uncle teaching at MIT, although that’s the classic one for me. That one he was more “coherent”, but it’s not “Do you know who my dad is?” because dad’s rich or connected. It’s “my relative is smart so I am too.” Pehaps the absolute stupidest appeal to authority fallacy ever tried.

      yep. and they love him. they ignore all reality, because they’re racists/sexists/fascists and don’t mind burning everything else down so they can shit on everything from the economy to the functioning of government.

      thanks conservatives, you fucking pogues
