What the fuck? There goes my enjoyment of Underworld, I guess. Now I'm always gonna see her zombie-looking face trying to persuade people that yeah, her son-in-law really shits eggs.
I wish people would stop conflating intelligence and populist talk by politicians. That statement doesn't have anything to do with being smart or dumb, it's just a statement that is more likely to win her office because she knows her audience well. Her audience doesn't want a strong independent woman there, they want someone who will tell them they're right in their sexism. If it's a woman, even better! They have an argument that "even that woman says so."
So if anything, either she or her advisors are definitely smart enough to recognise that.
I know what people mean when they say it, just wanted people to know that it's incorrect.
What kind of arrogance is that? I honestly don't know. Or are you saying that using correct diagnosis doesn't matter?
I honestly did not expect that kind of reaction, I thought I was just helping others learn. So yeah, my staying ignorant comment is very apt and not ironically arrogant.
And your "barely on the fringe of being technically correct" is ridiculous because I'm not only technically correct, sociopath simply isn't a diagnosis. If you tell that word to a psychologist, they'll internally roll their eyes, because that term doesn't exist in psychology.
While UK is often called the USA of Europe, US still wins by a long shot. AFAIK no one had to give an official statement asking people to not shoot at a hurricane in the UK.
