If they were intelligent, we wouldn't even figure out they're villains

Honestly, its always been anti-intellectualism. Sure not all smart people are good people, but in general empathy is a sign of intelligence, while malice and stupidity go hand in hand.

Edit: There's also the fact that the smart tropey villains also often happen to be wealthy, and as we all know being wealthy means someone is smart/s

Dr Evil is pretty dumb, he only surrounded himself with intelligent people. Still not an equivalent since DT is hiring idiots.

Fun fact: DT can mean alcohol withdrawal and the symptoms resemble Trump. "Severe alcohol withdrawal symptoms such as shaking, confusion, and hallucinations."

I kind of thought this was the joke. Many many dystopian plots are about governments ran by corporations and filled with foreign spies.

On behalf of all the Welsh people I know would you have a problem with “cac” rather than the Dutch based (?) “kak” in this word?

Gotta drain the swamp to make room for the cesspool.

Non-fiction.

A very underrated show.

I watched all 3 atlas shrugged movies. It basically comes to down to "if I can't have it then no one can"

Sprinkled in with CEOs on the factory floor rolling up their sleeves and stopping an accident. A true work of fiction.

I did a report on that book in high school. I got through maybe 15 pages before losing all willpower. Then I read a bunch of summaries and other reviews. I got an A. I think my teacher hadn't read it either.
