    History is full of idiots that were looked down upon as too stupid to be really dangerous that, when they got power, decided to make themselves the smartest guys in the room by killing all the “smart” people.

    You don’t have to be competent to overthrow a government and rein in tyranny. You just have to be able to inflict violence and suffering.
