托马斯·索维尔在多部著作中都对此进行了深入剖析。在《知识分子与社会》（Intellectuals and Society）一书中，他指出许多“知识精英”实际上成了 20 世纪一些最恶劣的（经济）灾难和人权暴行的吹鼓手。在 2020 年，我们可以在那些冠状病毒歇斯底里症患者身上生动地看到这一点……
Thomas Sowell writes about this in depth in several of his works. In Intellectuals and Society, he notes that many "intellectual elite" have been cheerleaders for some of the worst (economic) disasters and human rights abuses of the 20th century. In 2020, we can see this vividly with the coronahysterics…

……论点。> 讨厌那些受过大学教育、懂科学、读过书还富有经济生产力的左翼分子！托马斯·索维尔把你们这些人称为“知识界精英”（intelligenstia）。我建议你读读《知识分子与社会》。美国统治阶层寡头和知识精英的狂妄自大，将会成为导致我们国家毁灭或衰落的主要推手。
…argument. > Darn those leftists with their college education and science and their book learnin' and their economic productivity! Thomas Sowell calls you folks the "intelligenstia". I suggest you read "Intellectuals and Society". The arrogance of America's ruling oligarchy and intellectual elite will be a major contributor to our country's destruction or downfall.
……被分配。> 你是在声称历史一直都是公正的吗？在回答这个问题之前，请先深思一下。什么是“公正”？在回答之前好好想想。实际上，去读读索维尔的《寻美求真》（The Quest for Cosmic Justice）和《知识分子与社会》吧。你会发现，社会正义视角下的正义，与历史上人们所认为的正义有着天壤之别。在我看来，它也更加不公正、不公平……
…distributed. > Are you asserting that history has been just? Think hard before you answer this one. What is "just"? Think hard before you answer that one. Actually, read "The Quest for Cosmic Justice" and the "Intellectuals and Society" by Sowell. You'll find that the social justice version of justice is vastly different from what people have historically thought of as justice. It is also, in my estimation, far more unjust, unfair,…
