Destino Manifesto, unfortunately true of most politicians. As the old joke goes "Politicians are a lot like diapers. They should be changed frequently, and for the same reasons." -anonymous

We have a lot of these types in our midst. People who deem themselves worthy to judge all of human history, without having any education or life-experience.

This word has already helped me silence a family member who was insistent that they were absolutely positively right on my medical care and had no information whatsoever about it. Either what I am going through or from a medical standpoint. I told her that she was an untracrepadarian. She stopped in her tracks because she didn’t know what it meant. When I explained it to her she shut up immediately because she realized what she was doing.

The irony of everyone in the comments section saying there are too many people like this nowadays on the internet, whilst commenting on the internet and playing a quiz to better their knowledge of things they don’t know about and form opinions of them. 🤣
