Matt Whyglesias

When I need to be reminded that Matt Yglesias is a fucking idiot, I just look at things like this.

Also, this.

Yglesias was a strong supporter of invading Iraq, Iran and North Korea, calling the countries on his blog “evil” and stating that “we should take them all out,” although he was critical of the term “axis of evil.”[5][6] He later called his attitudes about the war a mistake.

Well, at least he copped to it being a mistake, I guess, but still: idiot.

I’ll admit it. People much dumber than I am with no skills and no talent but only credentials to wave around who become enormously successful but are fundamentally no better than some mook ranting in line at a Burger King — well, they make me annoyed and angry.
