    Sure, dude. I hereby declare that I’m a rather normal and generic person, have no political degree, and am generally uneducated on the finer nuances and only know the broad strokes of various ideologies. Regardless, no one needs higher education to recognize the reality that humans are not creating any form of utopia. That simply isn’t going to happen. A brief glance at history is more than enough to show the rise and fall of nations and that nothing lasts, and humans have never been able to make it last even under good environmental conditions because they, themselves, are an utter mess.

      to recognize the reality that humans are not creating any form of utopia.

      So you don’t know anything… except you know everything.

      A brief glance at history

      Maybe next time try to go for two glances - then you might stop yourself next time from exposing yourself as somebody who doesn’t know anything while also (somehow) entitling yourself to expertise on the thing you don’t know anything about.

        I never called myself an expertise on anything, but it looks like you’re trying to. You don’t need higher education to see the obvious.

          So this is just…

          I never called myself an expertise

          …you hiding behind false modesty?

          Just a few short minutes ago you were entitling yourself to expertise on the beliefs of communists… where did all that knowledge all of a sudden go, eh?
