Your above comment is a perfect reflection of your well known(to me) antipathy and hatred of academic studies in general. You’re quite the enemy of higher education in the United States. You may not realize it, but it has come through time and time again. Overall, you impress me as someone who truly hates education, hates the “world of the mind”, the domain of intellectuals, who, after all, are just those among us who are never happier then when we are immersed in the world of ideas and learning.

Oh nooeesss! Fentanyl! I’m so scared!!!
Yes, the past informs the present, which is why your expert's claims of fascism are laugh-out-loud dumb. Government is first and foremost an economic framework always. The past informs on the characteristics that typify a fascist government. You and your experts have to throw history out the window, claiming fascism is different every time, to draw your nonsense picture. I don't expect you to take my word. I expect you to let the past inform the present, which you flatly refuse to do. It isn't me versus those morons you keep citing. It is history, a.k.a. the past, versus the morons you keep citing.
The position isn't offered to the smartest person. There is no slate of candidates who line up to take a test with the high score being awarded the position. He was offered the position because of his connections, and surprise-surprise, even dumb people can build formidable connections.

Here’s my expert. And as far as your wording in describing him? Did you even realize that your comment reflects far more on YOU, than it does the scholar in question? It’s a reflection of your overall attitude toward any higher educator who dares to challenge his students to use their critical thinking skills.
Your comment, in other words, really reflects very poorly on YOU, certainly not Stanley, and it’s not something you should be proud of sharing with anyone! Even willing to use the word “retarded”. Yikes!

“This fall he’ll decamp to the University of Toronto’s Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy, where he was offered the position of Bissell Hyatt Chair in American Studies”

I don’t believe he is offered that position because he’s dumb. That’s a prestigious chair. You, AI-O-Meter, on the other hand? . Why don’t you write a peer review article, describing why Stanley is as stupid as you claim. You have the academic credentials to write a good analysis of his ignorance, and should have no problem publishing in a prestigious journal.
How Fascism Works review: a vital read for a nation under Trump
Yale professor Jason Stanley enters a growing literary field with a sober examination of an inflammatory political concept
Good stuff.
Well fentanyl is a serious problem.
Is it?
Trump is the real Michael Scott.
I honestly can’t fathom how he can be so transparent about this **** and his supporters just refuse to see that he’s the biggest snake oil salesman who ever lived. He bet on the country being this stupid, and won, twice!
Why can’t white people (those are who are primarily addicted to it) addicted to it just say no? I find it interesting that when it comes to opioids and fentanyl, it’s a systemic problem and we need to support these poor families while addictions among other demographic groups are seen as individual failures of morality.
