This is gonna be the thread where we talk about stuff

Without having any prior knowledge with what you guys are talking about, both because 1) that YouTube video doesn't load on my phone and 2) I've been getting all of my news from snippets in patients rooms and The Onion, I'm going to pose the question:

Guys why aren't we running the world here? I mean, here we have a group of talented and positive individuals who despite a lots of differences have always managed to maintain or return to an atmosphere of team friendliness. The listening ear and thoughtful responses that seem to come so readily here is something, i think, the political world desperately needs.

Of course, this isn't a serious question. It's more of a prompt. I mean seriously, running the world how dumb.

Too much power in the hands of too little; too many of which have too little heterogeneity of opinion.

Also, for every reasonable person on the planet, there are a hundred unreasonable and unconvinceable ones, and that's a hundred more votes to the reasonable one.

A person is smart. Humanity is goddamn stupid.
