Correction

That election was about the working class finally getting one over on the managerial elite.

7 years later and you still don't understand 2016 or refuse to understand it, all while acting smug.


There was no correction in your post, it is same as what I said.


Oh really? Which group are you?

That election was about people with common sense getting one over on the brainwashed mids, obviously.


And all of those "brainwashed mids" just randomly happen to live close to cities, where housing is more expensive, meaning higher income, which means higher education levels.


Could educated people ever be wrong?


Common sense is more valuable (in the real sense, not just money) than a diploma.

And, the GPT revolution is making traditional education even less important than before.

“Hate all you want, but I'm smart, I'm so smart, and I'm in school. These guys are out here making money all these ways, and I'm spending mine to be smart. You know why? Because when I die, buddy, know what's gonna keep me warm? That's right, those degrees.” - Kanye West


> Common sense is more valuable

You assume that people with high income/education have less common sense. Correct?


Common sense has a new meaning nowadays: it is just opposite of educated. And in that semantic space education = brainwashing. So yes, by that definition higher education (etc) leads to less common sense.


Interesting. Reminds me newspeak language.


No, you two are brainwashed!
