professional idiot

In contrast to the rank-and-file "useful idiot" (typically a disposable agitator), a "professional idiot" earns a living satisfying regime objectives. Examples include teachers, scientists, economics, and journalists promoting establishment narratives, and shock jocks and controlled-opposition figures pushing fall-back propaganda (loudly-advertised phony deplatforming pogroms may be instituted against these latter figures with declining levels of interest in order to remind you, the rube, that they exist). The professional idiot is intensely adverse to actual productive work, and invariably gravitates to careers in government and its associated parasitic organizations, or to other roles permitting him to talk for a living.

The difference between a professional idiot and a traitor is that the idiot believes in the bullshit he spouts whereas a traitor is consciously aware of the hidden goals of the entity he supports or receives compensation from. That said, the line differentiating professional idiocy from treason is amorphous, and much apparent "idiocy" is simply a cunning ruse on the part of knowing agents of influence, so much so that, for the clearest picture, the prudent observer will invert Hanlon's Razor to read thus: "Never attribute to stupidity that which is adequately explained by malice."

"Paul Krugman is the quintessential professional idiot."

the second-oldest profession

Engineering.

The various religious texts record that in the beginning there was chaos, from which a God created the heavens and earth. That's a feat of engineering. God also said "let there be light" and there was light - a task which now universally falls to the electrical engineer.

But why, then, is engineering only the second-oldest profession? The oldest profession is lawyer. Who do you think created all of that chaos?

Professor Sean Hinton

A Professor Sean Hinton (usually shortened to a 'Sean Hinton' or a 'Prof Sean') is a cocktail. Served in a tall glass with ice it is composed of two shots of Jamieson's irish whisky, two shots of Jack Daniel's and is topped up with coke.

The purpose of a cocktail is to make spirits more palatable, a Professor Sean Hinton employs Jamieson's to take the edge off Jack Daniel's, unconventionally creating a more alcoholic beverage in the process.

"I'd like a Professor Sean Hinton please"
