Dozens of academics become politicians after student group’s stunning victory
Incredible development in Serbia, where a parliament of experts sets out to reform a notoriously corrupt state.
I’m completing this headline because I know it’s going to upset people
Serbia Just Elected the World’s Brainiest Parliament Since The Chinese Communist Revolution
…who then proceeded to have multiple anti-intellectual purges and self-inflicted one of the largest famines in history
can we please not forget that the reason the CCP revolution was so successful was thanks to its peasant origins and grassroots appeal amid a series of revolutions the US could not stop no matter how many munitions they maneuvered over thanks to how popular they were? rebranding revolutionaries as some kind of high-IQ population does nothing save defy historicity, stray from Marx’s message (or was this particular one Lenin’s?) that nothing is “fated” and everything thought to be natural can be surpassed through material efforts—i.e. that any circumstance can be risen above through hard work, that no matter what class you were born into, you may organize and revolt—and reeks of elitism.
Tell me more about that 👀
By what metric?

How many football fields is that?
which academics are you referring to?
I don’t think colloquial usage of the word election for a country means party elections. Were there national elections that selected leaders during the Communist Revolution?
Ah yes, because the guy who murdered all the sparrows which caused a giant famine was such a fucking genius
Was the parliament before the revolution measurably brainier than this one?
