One of the worst antipatterns in the discourse is a passion for claiming that people who you think are morally bad (investment bankers, Donald Trump, right-wing VCs, whoever) are also stupid because that conclusion lowers your enemies' status or raises yours. — PolitiTweet.org

Genuinely hubristic to get a behind-the-scenes look at how successful entrepreneurs and investors work, find it to be somewhat contrary to your expectations, and then leap to the conclusion "this proves they're all secretly idiots." — PolitiTweet.org

It doesn't make sense (politics would be really easy if all the bad people were also dumb) and it also gets the normative issues wrong — the case for a more egalitarian distribution of resources is that everyone deserves a great life not that rich people are secretly stupid. — PolitiTweet.org
