It was already embarrassing to write this drivel in 2016, but to quote it approvingly *now* is just appallingly stupid even by journalistic standards, which is saying a lot.https://twitter.com/jayrosen_nyu/status/1193398038582063104 …

Philippe Lemoine added,
In fact, if you want a proof of the cluelessness of the elites, you just have to go back to the apocalyptic predictions they made before or shortly after he was elected and compare that to what actually happened since then.
I remember very distinctly having *many* conversations with highly educated Americans, I'm talking about professors at prestigious universities here, predicting that Trump would literally open concentrations camps and dump muslims in them. They *genuinely* believed that.
Of course, since the educated class controls the media, nobody is talking about what those supposedly superior intellects predicted back then (except when they are exceptionally stupid like Rosen), but I remember those conversations very well.
Same things happened in almost every faculty party at almost every university. I would get flack for arguing that maybe Artificial General Intelligence might prove a bigger existential threat than a new president.
