- tightbookkeeper 2y agoI think you’re missing a lot of historical context. If by “intellectual” you mean cosmopolitan university professors and government administrators then yes. This also closely associated with internalization, relativism, and Jewish culture. If by “intellectual” you mean learning, reading, thinking, then no.
