From a different article on the same site:
"""Martin Shkreli, a smaller version of Elon Musk, combines wealth with intellectualism, and is very popular among millennials who are rejecting ‘low-information’ SJW-liberalism and class warfare in favor of wealth creation, self-improvement, and intellectualism."""
and
"""Interestingly, on Reddit and 4chan, English, History, and Philosophy majors are also respected, too, as they sacrifice monetary gains to pursue a ‘higher’ calling. Such degrees, even though they may not pay very well or have immediate real-world applications, are a solace of intellectual purity, patience, and understanding in a society spoiled by instant gratification, ostentatious materialism, ‘low-information’ pandering, and sensationalism. Both STEM and some liberal arts (not the useless ones like child development or gender studies) combine authenticity, sufficient intellectual rigor, introspection, and abstractions. For the math major such abstractions include axioms, postulates and theorems; for the literature major, it’s words and grammar; for philosophy, it’s ontology and epistemology. ‘Low-information’ means not circuitous enough, too obvious."""
and I don't know how I'm supposed to take any of this seriously.
