Preslav RachevHere is why scientists and domain experts rarely make good politicians:
You don’t win idiots over with facts. You win them over with equally appealing arguments that work in favor of your agenda. But that’s not always as bad as it sounds - sometimes, you need to play the game if it works for a greater cause.
