no. if you are smart you need to exploit the stupid. they both want and need this. they pretend to hate the wealthy (smart), but they would have no idea of what to do with themselves were they not told what to think or do. i think that is the ultimate lesson of the npc meme. if you are smart; gain wealth. if you can't, maybe you aren't. i will add that the lessons of the last few years for me personally have been about the total lies of the way things are; the mythologies of good/bad/left/right/country/race/se x are mechanisms of control. things would have been easier had i never believed in certain things.
