      That's not to bash sports but to point out most ppl are v intelligent. It's how/where intelligence gets channelled.https://twitter.com/ChaseMadar/status/836604911831891968 …

          I think Chomsky has made this exact set of points for years. He's right, I always feel stupid talking to people who love sports.

          Chomsky has made that point, but sometimes it makes me wonder if our love of politics is just a consequential hobby

          Right that's the other thing, many of us do talk about politics like sports, but politics has consequences.

          Or the interpretive acuity with which we debate movies and television. (A classic I love: http://nataliacecire.blogspot.com/2014/01/humanities-scholarship-is-incredibly.html …)
