Sorry, I don't play with devil's advocates.
If this is your actual view, then just admit it, and don't pretend to hide behind an imaginary devil.
- nradov 3y agoI'm not pretending. I know very little about political science and am asking a sincere question. No agenda.

- RhysU 3y agoYes, including the field's worth and the counterfactual that it doesn't exist as a field of study. gets popcorn But, like, sincerely, first they read some Plato/Aristotle/Machiavelli/etc, second learn about mercantilism's failures, third about modern coopetition in light of the multigenerational UN stalemates, fourth about the Laffer curve, and then what do they do and produce? Specially, someone with a terminal BA in Political Science without an MBA or law school or connections? I am totally ignorant here. (2-3 well-crafted sentences is all that most compelling ideas really need. Plenty of space in an HN comment. It's not Twitter.)
