(2,983 posts)nor a significant intellect, can make up for a revolting personality, for a complete lack of character. I suspect that this man has a suitably high IQ, was well educated... and is well aware of exactly what he's saying and why he's saying it. There are, unfortunately, far too many Professors and Doctors who may as well wipe their ass with their PHDs or even MDs, considering how much good they will do with them.
Having finally spent a year in college, I have a deep respect and even affection for Professors and intellectuals who are truly decent people. Yet, also, after having finally spent a year in college... I find that there are quite a number of people with great intellectual abilities who are truly malicious, cruel, arrogant, selfish... and ultimately, rotten to the core. It wasn't a bunch of idiots that pushed eugenics, it is not a bunch of idiots pushing similar movements now. It's highly educated, highly intelligent people who possess no sense of personal principle, no generosity, and precious little kindness beyond the superficial sort.
People like Jason Richwine (interesting last name...) are phony in the truest sense of the word - they are not real people. They are (metaphorically speaking) monsters masquerading as human. Such people have been responsible for some of the most terrible crimes ever committed by humans, for some of the most terrible things that ever made it into the history books (and for a lot that didn't).
Less than a worm, really. I wish I believed in some kind of true, spiritual karma - if I did, I would suspect that this man would eventually be reincarnated as some form of really vile bacteria.
