Doesn’t mean a thing. If you’re willing to spend 100k on that Cracker Jack box, Walla a degree.

If they were smart they would know the difference between male and female.

I work with both educated and people with just a HS diploma. In fact, one person is the 1st one in her family to actually graduate HS. That being said, I had a situation come up today where several "educated" people completely got something wrong and did not understand why. The HS graduate caught it like asking I was asking what time is it.

A dumbass who just went in for a gender studies degree... is considered highly educated by the left.

This is what dumb people tell themselves to feel better.


College educated Sheila Jackson Lee said the moon was a planet made up of mostly gases.

These are the kind of educated smart people who are voting Democrat.

I’m interested to know why the “educated” people didn’t catch it. In my experience people who fancy themselves “educated” and “smarter than everyone else” will generally double down on being wrong when they’re contradicted by someone they think is less educated or intellectually inferior.

I know people who were terrible engineers who made management.
They can't do any of the math, physics or write a line of software.

But boy will they fight someone over some flat earth idea they have.

Was what the Dems did to themselves smart? What they did for themselves (globalism) could seem smart for their agenda but it wasn’t for humanity’s sake.

There is a heavy correlation between non-degree holders and their ability to conduct research versus people with degrees (if this isn't obvious, idk what else to tell you).



I know people my man.


Your graduate degree east coast female’s research is only reading the ny times.

She’s more educated than me but I won’t allow myself to be so misinformed by only going to one source.


This is why the credentialed class is mostly a farce. They jerk each other off and stroke their own egos when they really don’t know shite.

One wrong person has education, the other has decades in the field. Neither one caught the obvious error, but the SMART person did with much less education and experience.

The ability to utilize logic and reason is what separates the smart from the dumb. Some have basic ability, while others have much superior skills. Thomas Sowell is a great example.

For various reasons, some people are a lot more comfortable with authoritarianism than they are with liberty.

It turns out that most people who obtain a college degree hold authoritarians such as the college professors in high regard and seek out authoritarians.

It is no surprise then that these people see the government as an extension of their college experience and they seek a system whereby they are told what to do or have it done for them.

Therefore, they respond to a government that wants to control your life and that is the Democrats for sure.

It is definitely not Republican because Trump is shedding power from the executive branch.

Not exactly what an authoritarian would do.

Wouldn't even call them educated. Mostly low-grade liberal arts degrees that aren't exactly known for academic rigor even 20 years ago. Most of today's students take ADHD pills, cram just before exams, brain dump to pass, and retain nearly zero of what the should have learned. It's why apps like Grammarly are popular in higher ed now, most young adults have abysmal writing skills but they will loudly proclaim their education chops...
