Count me in as someone who couldn't care less about IQ scores. My cousin is a legit genius but has no common sense. It's not impressive.
I prefer people who are genuine. I may not agree with 99.99% of what Ronster says but we all know where he stands on everything.
Descartes said everyone has common sense but that an enlightened skeptic, such as himself, does not rely on their own common sense when seeking after deeper or higher truths.
Also, as I've already said, you're confusing a lack of nuance with authenticity.
The Alfa Bank thing was incorrect information, but Hillary's people didn't know it was incorrect at the time. They were really desperate to bolster the Russia narrative and we're seeing what would stick.
But let's not insinuate that this means the entire Mueller investigation was based on those lies. What became the Mueller investigation started in mid 2016, before all this. If Trump had lost, the investigation would have wound down and we would have heard very little about it. Trump winning meant the investigation had to be spun off to a special counsel which is a very public process.
If Hillary had won, there would have been a special counsel appointed to continue the investigation of the irregularities in her campaign.
Russell Brand is a right-wing conspiracy theorist?

He's nutty enough to be one.
Anyone who declares themselves as a relatively liberal and centrist person politically are typically deemed as a nutter by either side. Jesse Ventura is another guy that comes to mind. They're so damn centered politically that neither side really wants anything to do with them because they're actually a major believer in injecting something into politics that politicians cannot stand.
Honesty. Integrity. Morals. Less Geopolitical interference. Less Big Government getting in your way on a daily basis. We can't have that in today's political arena. It's not allowed. It's not possible. I mean, eventually? It'll be possible. Once we've allowed the actual nutters in charge to blow us all to hell during WWIII. It's a shame really.
We, the people. We allowed this clear cut Plutocracy to infest our Democracy. Such a shame.
