Autocracy/ monarchy as a form of social organization is far more relevant to a Kindergartener's life than this 'democracy' business.

So sick of hearing about Baudrillard and his "old man yelling at cloud" brand of French communist whining. The whole movement should be purged from the matrix.

For all the obsession with REAL philosophers like Kant, Hegel, Nietzsche, etc., the modern world is actually the product of midwits like Rousseau, Feuerbach, and Rand.

The future will be built by clowns like Jordan Peterson, Ibram X. Kendi or Steven Pinker, not some deep thinker.

Or it will probably be Mr Beast.

If any of the guys in that first group had the foresight to start prepackaged food brands, maybe they'd retain relevance.
