    I agree, though I am super disdainful of any argument that is sort of reskinning “other people are really stupid”.

    I don’t consider ignorance and susceptible to sophisticated influence campaigns to mean “really stupid”.

    Perhaps I’m just using nicer language to say the same thing (or otherwise, ultimately, hold myself to be superior). That’s fair I suppose - but I’m aware of the circumstances and privilege that helped me achieve my perspective. I’m of the belief that, if given similar benefits, most would be just as “superior”.

    Now that I’ve demonstrated I’m superior, and humble, I still feel like this could have been avoided if people in the district voted instead of just ignoring the campaign or assuming, like I did, that people in the district would do better.

    To anyone reading this, if you are a resident in the district and didn’t vote for Bowman… do better next time for everyone’s sake.
