‘Smugnorant’




During last Saturday’s [February 9, 2019] “Solid Chat Saturday,” from the live-streaming The Jimmy Dore Show, I sent in a comment thanking the program for the video “NYTimes Journo Melts Down On Joe Rogan’s Show” [published February 4, 2019]—already one the year’s best Jimmy Dore videos (re-posted above)—and praising a particular comedian, Paul Gilmartin, for the term smugnorant applied to New York Times columnist Bari Weiss. (He says it at the mark of 15:40.)







It turns out, as mentioned by Ron Placone, the term smugnorant is now in Urban Dictionary.

I love this term, smugnorant, because it applies not only to Bari Weiss but to just about every single person who spouts opinions aligned with the corrupt, corporate, Democratic Party Establishment. This is the same corrupt, corporate Democratic Party Establishment which pushed for and shoved Hillary Clinton as the 2016 nominee for president of the United States. It still holds the power. There is no sincerity—and no credibility—with their opinions. But, they still express them. And, so, they have earned this label—this term—which I do welcome. 

Smugnorant.
