I constantly see liberals say that people who vote for Brexit, people who are likely to vote for Trump, etc, are just "uneducated" and often lack a college degree. Why is uneducated such a popular insult for them?
>>78599701
>uneducated
What they mean is unindoctrinated by the marxist colleges.
>>78599849
DING-DING-DING!
It allows them to feel superior without being racist. The number of things I've seen today about how there should be a test to keep stupid people from voting sounds an awful lot like the "voter suppression" lefties constantly whine about. Ironically, the majority of people who would fail this test are niggers.
they think they are superior, cultured and enlightened, as opposed to inbred uneducated racists!
>>78599701
Libs claim to represent the working class and the uneducated's best interest until the uneducated turn against him
Uneducated is just a codeword for not-brainwashed when it comes to college degree dick waving anyway
While i agree it's stupid, don't come at me and act as if the right is any better or you are a muslim cuck shill.
>>78599701
Because the left wing is now totally divorced from any sort of sense of working class solidarity and economic egalitarianism.
They're the new petit-bourgeois, and look down on the unwashed masses accordingly.
>>78599701
Because your opinions do not carry as much weight as theirs because you are not them
They think paying $80,000+ for an English degree that can't net them a living wage makes them "smart"
Meanwhile I'm sitting here with my biochemistry degree and my sweet ass office job where I can browse /pol/ all day and get paid to post FUCK THE EU and FUCK HILLARY
Because the average liberal spent $100k on a worthless liberal arts degree and they need to justify their terrible financial choices somehow.
>>78599701
OP, my experience in college has persuaded me that there is indeed a liberal agenda that is shoved down the students' throats. They come out actually retarded, so when they see someone with a different viewpoint they automatically regurgitate whatever it was they brainwashed them.
>>78599701
>muh uneducated voters
>muh ignorant countryside non-citydwellers

All they do is bash the right for being "uneducated" and working class.

I know older adults (like 65+) who are like this. My Dad in particular just spits out whatever headline he heard on Fox news word for word. I try to redpill him as much as I can when I see him and I can tell some bits are getting through to him, but I live far away and don't see him enough to get him un-hooked from that weird cognitive dissonance thing.

>>78599701
typical leftist rethoric. they just tell themselves that everyone who doesn't agree with their view must be and idiot. The liberal media pushes this kind of rethoric too.
Counter-argument: We had the French revolution thanks to the uneducated masses who didn't listen to the "smart" elite. The average people had common sense and thanks to them we have democracy and modern humanistic views.

Today's liberals want to get rid of the working class. That's why Bernie and his supporters wanted to make college free, they think EVERYONE should have a college degree.

I guess its typical establishment rethoric, not exclusively leftist.

wouldn't you look down on someone who doesn't even have a high-school degree?
>>78601798

>>78599701
Because they are snobbish and love to promote class division.
>>78599701
Liberals bemoan the plight of the uneducated unless they defy them, at which point they become subhuman filth.
>>78599701
It isn't a insult. It's a fact.
>we dems look out for the disenfranchised!
>lmao you're voting for Trump because you're uneducated
Greatest double think of them all.
Also
>mass primary
>Trump sweeps educated vote
It's all so tiring.
I was given a survey to complete once and it asked me all sorts of stuff like my salary and what level of education I had. I have an MSc and I don't draw a salary, I have a private income thanks to a very fortunate upbringing. However, I didn't give them that information. I filled in the survey (it was on the 2010 General Election) and gave them it back. Survey done, with me down as having no education and no recorded income.
What I'm driving at here is that people who tend to lean toward the right are a lot more private about these things and a lot less likely to wantonly divulge personal information to someone they have never met, or an organisation that doesn't need it. No one knows how much I'm worth apart from me. I don't have a LinkedIn, nor is my Facebook full of what I did at university.
I'm not saying that all left wing people give out all their information and all right wing people (or pro Brexit, or whatever) withhold it but you'll naturally see people having a different attitude to privacy across the left/right spectrum. That, and as more people have gone to university in the last 20 years than did in the previous 80 you have a large portion of the under 40s who have gone to university. It's something like 50 percent of people in their 20s, whereas for over 40s it's more like 5 percent. Therefore, your exit or Trump voters are more likely to have lower reported levels of higher education due to their being of an older age on average and having less inclination toward giving anyone personal details.
>>78599701
People on the tv told them.
Trade unions are only good for the super rich. It happened here when Bill Clinton signed NAFTA, tons of manufacturing and tech support went overseas. You dont need a degree to perform a trade, so these are largely the people who were left behind. People with education were largely uneffected. But take note, there's been a world wide (US and Europe) recession since the 90's when these trade unions were made.
t. have degree but worked as technician previously
I'm not a fan this whole university elitism, but come on. Uneducated people are often just plain stupid. Now, when I say "uneducated", I don't mean everyone who doesn't hold a degree. You can be an educated individual without formal papers.
When I say uneducated, I mean those who don't read anything other than junk magazines. Those who rarely leave home. Those who actively choose to not pursue facts, those who will choose emotion despite being presented with facts.
However, there IS a clear correlation between a formal degree, high income, good health, high IQ and, in Europe, supporting the EU.
>>78599701
funny cause the same people that they defend, are uneducated immigrants, who are definitly goin to dumb down the cunt as a whole.
so its only a problem when the uneducated person is white
>>78599701
They like to pretend they are smart, that and hatred of the working class, said people they supposedly support.
A higher education exposes you to a variety of schools of thought, helps you think more critically and introduces you to ideas and concepts you otherwise wouldn't know about. Without it you are making decisions simply, without understanding the ramifications of issues and are more susceptible to propaganda.
>>78599701
>"uneducated"
works as an insult for them because
1) cleanhands way to say "dumb"
2) can be changed (via "education")
3) feel good factor for libs (vomiting talking points becomes "educating")
4) longterm leftwing cultural meme - duped proletariat thats deep down righteous but lead astray by big business/capital interests and false consciousness
>>78603644
Buzzwords will get you nowhere here. Try using reason
>>78603644
This Leaf is right.
Too bad we don't have any institutions of higher education anymore.
>>78603644
>higher education exposes you to a variety of schools of thought
Your information is outdated.
Its literally true, people who were pro-Brexit generally had less education
Also trading in one set of self-serving neoliberal elites for another is stupid, education aside. What the fuck did you hope to accomplish by this
>>78599701
Funny that the working class are competing for different jobs than the elites and might have different economic priorities. No it couldn't be that they have a point when they say immigrants are taking their jobs. They must just be "stupid". Easier to push authoritarian policies on them when you believe that kind of paternalistic bullcrap.
>>78603644
This is true, but it doesn't apply to the vast majority of colleges in the U.S., anyway.
>>78602150
>an actual class discussion whether or not mermaids were real
>teacher asked the class if they believed in God, then asked why did god let 50 gay people die
Oh shit that is not healthy.
>>78599701
A college education is often equivalent to self hating propaganda these days.
>>78599701
Does it matter? these same people will believe anything a scientist tells them.
>>78603468
>I mean those who don't read anything other than junk magazines. Those who rarely leave home. Those who actively choose to not pursue facts, those who will choose emotion despite being presented with facts.
This could apply to a large chunk of people who have gone to very reputable universities, mine included.
I'm going with what I said further up the thread. Left wingers, or those leaning toward the establishment, are more likely to divulge personal information like their salary and health to pollsters. Combine that with the fact that you tend to be more left wing when you are younger, and the vast majority of university educated people are in these younger age groups, you have some very unreliable statistics.
>>78599701
Because they assume their mickey mouse degree in womens studies makes them intelligent.
>"I went to Uni therefore I am smarter than most other people"
Mostly they're just arrogant pseudo intellectuals and armchair politicians, and now that they didn't get their way in a democratic vote, their true colours show.
>>78603644
Higher education is attainable through independent learning and research, colleges in the US are degree-mills that indoctrinate the youth.
>>78604129
>>78604238
I know outrage culture has destroyed American colleges, and it is starting to take some root in GB, but most of Europe, even fucking Sweden, remains mostly unaffected, and universities remain a place where you are exposed to several schools of thought without it being part of some forced agenda. You can have open, civil discussion about any subject, and state your opinion, and nobody will report you to the Bias Privilege PC Committee, because _there is no such thing_ here.
>>78599701
They desperately need to rationalize spending $80,000 for a degree that doesn't even include calculus.

>>78604265
>people who were pro-Brexit generally had less education
Because they tended to be over 40, and until about 1998 a very small amount of the United Kingdom populace bothered with school past the age of sixteen. University attendance since then has hit 50 percent of school leavers. In 1992 the number of universities in the United Kingdom was doubled.
Prior to that date there were a handful of selective, competent and very well run universities. There were even less prior to the late 60s.
>>78604367
How the fuck will confining class warfare to the UK fix anything?
Liberals think you can't be smart without a formal education in a cucked university.
I believe this poorly-drawn meme answers your question, OP
>>78599701
Because for some unexplained reason they believe that a bullshit "studies" degree makes them educated and intelligent. When the opposite is true. But, their professors have convinced them that being stupid, weak minded propaganda believers means they are smart.
>>78599701
Because in their minds ad hominem isn't a fallacy so long as it makes them feel good.
>>78605131
Can confirm.

>>78604746
Education, yes. Employment, no.
They have their use. And not going to one doesn't mean you're uneducated. But, we don't exactly have a culture that values education, so the likelihood of someone that didn't go to college being educated is pretty slim.
But, luckily socioeconomics and morality aren't a science.
I have three degrees, work with immigrants regularly and voted out. It's possible to go to university and not drink the kool-aid. It just requires that students actually think rather than merely receive.
>>78599701
Because of the overwhelming liberal bias in academia that confers degrees upon liberals by the bushels and pretends they matter.
Meanwhile, liberals themselves remain utterly useless, and would not be missed if vaporized en masse.

Any good stories?
>>78599701
What they mean is indoctrinated. From thier schools. They think lack of actual world knowledge is somehow good.
>>78606031
That wasn't my point. My point is that the people who voted for Brexit are in an age group that simply didn't have the opportunity, inclination or reason to go to university.
It's not as if they had access to it and turned their nose up at it, they simply didn't have the chance to go in the first place. It's like saying "people who voted to remain are more likely to have an internet connection".
>>78599701
>Why is uneducated such a popular insult for them?

>Rich people oppose you?

Yuppies! Nothing more disgusting than the average suburbanite!

Here, this (((Professor))) disagrees so your professor is clearly a fraud!
The only time they shut their mouths is when they get resistance from their pet minorities. They still insult them (see: Bernouts talking about Hillary's black supporters) but they do it behind closed doors.
I know I can't speak for everyone, and that this is anecdotal evidence, but I am in my mid to late twenties, pursuing a graduate level stem degree and have been working since I was fifteen. I've never gone more than four months without stable employment. My shortest stay with an employer was one and a half years.
I paid for my undergrad degree myself and I worked hard enough and performed well enough to convince my current employer to shell out money for the graduate degree I'm currently going for.
I am not in the least bit uneducated, however I share the opinion of some of you here that a person does not need to go into crippling university loan debt in order to be considered "educated". Some of my friends who went to vocational school, trade school, or just went straight into the workforce are more intelligent than half of the entitled, whining children I interact with on campus, in the workplace, and elsewhere.
Calling bongs uneducated because they decided to fight back against their jew overlords is just part of the misinformation and smearing that lefty cucks engage in on a regular basis to discredit and denounce anyone that disagrees with them,
I would have voted for Brexit, if I lived there. I will vote for Trump, if for no other reason than to cast a vote against $hillary Clinton.
Suck my dick and eat my shit, faglords.
>>78606048
I'm going to be intentionally vague. However, I worked with a professor from a sand country who dared to speak out against Shariah. This isn't 'Islam is total shit'. It's 'maybe we should analyse the texts and look at history and things in an objective way'. Suffice to say, he is lucky to be alive, and I'm glad he's here. Great guy, hard life.
Again being vague, I worked with a Syrian at one point and she was the worst caricature imaginable. Totally up front about being here to hoover up benefits. She also said people work too hard here and that it wasn't fair to have to do anything. She attempted to join a course, but when she found out that she had in fact been too lazy to fill in the paperwork and wouldn't get as much money as possible, plus it was too much to expect her to actually study. So yeah, she dropped out quickly. If someone told me about her, I would have assumed they were a racist liar, but I saw it with my own eyes. Really bizarre. I think she even rubbed her hands together at one stage.

Liberals betrayed the blue collar working class that originally backed them and put them in power in the first place. They did this by bringing in more and more foreigners sympathetic to their cause and altering their nations demographics.
To further increase their own voting bloc, liberals hijacked the higher education system, turning them into voter farms
New liberals inexplicably hate old liberals and will do anything to fuck them over
libs are dreamers
they never look into the impact their decisions will have

They love shallow, superficial slogans that make them feeeeellll..ummm... like dispossessed. Poor ickle luvs
The cold hard truth:
1) France no longer has any obligation to hold the migrants in camps at Calais and will let them flood across the Channel so illegal immigration will increase beyond all your right-wing nightmares.
2) Cameron will be replaced by Boris and/or all the other rabid right who will carve up the NHS and workers' rights.
3) No real British-owned industry exists thanks to Thatcher onwards and our economic strength has been based on being a financial centre for Europe but now that has been flushed down the bog too.
The stupid turkeys have voted for Xmas again.
Well done, cunts. Luckily I am semi retired on a pot of money so I'll sit back watch you daft bastards cucking yourself to death by these upper class twats, hedge-fund gamblers and former "city traders" (Farage) that fucked us up in 2008.
>>78599701
Because they are marxists, they believe everything needs to be centralized and cotrolled, and they believe their useless degree puts them in a position to decide for others what's best for and control others.
Schools are churning out thousands of little Hillaries.

I was in a sociology class in community college to get some humanities bullshit prereq out of the way. Someone asked what the difference between agnostic and atheist was and I explained to them that atheists don't believe in God and agnostics believe that they don't know. People are so butthurt that this one feminazi bitch yells at me "We-well I'm atheist and I think there could be a God!" Fucking great, we're entitled to defy literal definitions if it makes us feel better in our safe spaces. I didn't last long in community college before I had to leave. Couldn't take all the cucks
The left hates the lower and middle class, which is why they constantly antagonize them with the education thing. Only privileged people can afford a so-called "higher education" and this, in the mind of a sheltered asshole, means that blue collar workers are beneath them. It's really as simple as that.
This is something you would already know the answer to if you weren't an uneducated little shit.
The truth is that a college education teaches you much more than how to regurgitate info. For example, my college education has taught me to find the best and most reliable information on whatever it is I am researching. It has taught me to read and analyze very dense academic research that is positively brimming with useful information that the average pleb would likely not know how to access and/or use. In addition, it taught me why a united Europe is important, and what the consequences could be if European unity were shattered irrevocably. Believe it or not, our actions have consequences in the short-term and long-term future, and something as consequential as brexit should not be taken lightly. It could very well lead to the complete collapse of European regional peace. That would be a disaster of historic proportions.
>>78599701
>we need to protect the uneducated and unfortunate
>people that for for trump or brexit are uneducated red neck poor white trash!
stop looking for logic in the liberal.
>>78599849
Literally this.
Most of the time when they mean uneducated, they mean "Doesn't know shit about Diversity, never went into a bullshit sociology class"
The irony is, Sociology is absolutely useless and most actually legitimate fields have next to nothing to do with sociology and diversity bullshit, besides the dumb SJWs trying to beg people to put affirmative action diversity in there, claiming "Silicon valley is too white" (When in reality, right now there's so many fucking poo in the loos because "Why bother hiring american bob and pay him a good wage when we can hire Pajeet and pay him under minimum wage?"). The fact that humanities bullshit is a requirement for many majors is proof that they just want indoctrination.

What pisses me off is that professors won't call these subhumans out on their bullshit. Now that every college is "for-profit" and a multi-billion dollar business, students are seen as customers, and the customer is always right! You don't want the customer to go somewhere else!
I've heard that parents are now calling college professors and forcing them to change the grades of their children, and if they don't the administrators will make them do it.

1000 years ago was a long time ago. A better comparison would be the early/mid 20th century, a period in which instability in the European continent led to two world wars and many millions of unnecessary deaths. Those world wars have stopped because we have learned that European unity is important for maintaining peace. Economic interdependence and representative democracy are key to maintaining that unity, and the peace by extension. I know that, to you, the world order we live in seems eternal, but the truth is that it is very fragile. It must be protected if we do not want to see a repeat of the wars of the past.

Well now that's something I can tell you: immigrants who are here because they're either fleeing oppression or got here through legit means fucking HATE illegals and people taking the piss with asylum etc more than anyone else.
One of my co-workers is the most insufferable SJW cliche imaginable. She truly goes to pains to at every turn say how terrible the West is. There are people telling us about fleeing rape gangs and all kinds of shit, and she's there feebly protesting that the UK has rape culture and is super awful too. Everyone is just looking at her like
>What the fuck do you know about oppression? My family are all dead.
She also goes to great pains to push a progressive agenda, standing up for the poor minorities, as they espouse extremely right wing views that, coming from a white man, she would shriek uncontrollably at. The hypocrisy is incredible.

wow, so you learned how to do a book report for the Nth time? so smart!
ever consider that a weaker pound means that Britain can reestablish a manufacturing base that is competitive compared to EU countries? the GP is in incredible demand despite its low relative value.

Trade deals only enrich the people that design them ....because duh, why would they spend millions of dollars making their vision a reality if it wasn't going to be profitable
Liberals believe humanity is perfectable through education.
There's no such thing as human nature, only rational beings who are either properly informed or not. Once you're properly informed, their thinking goes, you'll conform to the correct opinions.
If you want to truly understand liberalism beyond "dey r mentally ill traitors!" I highly recommend pic related. It's almost scientific in its presentation and aligns very closely with observations I've made over the years. The audiobook is available on Amazon.
Moldbug recommends his other book "The Machiavellians", and Pman of MPC recommends his other other book "The Managerial Revolution". Burnham is a right wing heavyweight and you should read everything he wrote.

This entire post is pretty much nonsense, but I will say one thing.
Trade deals benefit society at large, but the problem is that they also harm unskilled labor. These deals should not be put in place without adequate funding and support for unskilled workers. The problem is that this funding and support has not been put into place when the trade deals are negotiated. That is an issue with right-wing conservative government, not with trade deals themselves. Get the government to offer support and funding so that unskilled workers can be given a place in the new economy and the trade deals will be better for everyone.

Burnham identifies peace as the ultimate goal of liberalism. What they value higher than anything else. Peace even if it means surrendering your country and losing your people in the process (after all, my people don't even exist! we're a social construct!). They simply can't grasp the higher ideals right wingers value. (for more on this, I'd recommend reading Haidt's "Righteous Mind", also available on Audible)

This.

Because they wasted money on getting a shitty liberal arts degree that blue pilled them and has no use what so ever. So I guess they use it as an insult to make them selves feel like they have some sort of an accomplishment.

That regional instability was because half of Europe was communist and half was capitalist, its nothing like that today, even Russia is capitalist now.
The EU is a regressive institution that has no reason to exist in today's world, thats why they reinvented themselves into an economic/foreign policy collar after the 90s

So you think that their was a questionnaire in the voting booth, where the voters had to note their educational level? Are you out of your fucking mind?
>>78599701
It plays into their sense of superiority. They feel that passing psych 101 with a C gives them some shed of authority. It makes them feel good about themselves while instantly defeating what ever is said (in there own world at least.) It just simply is not an argument, someone having less education doesn't mean their wrong but the leftys seem to think it does.
>>78611818
I'll be the first to admit that the EU needs democratic reform, but that's no reason to throw the baby out with the bathwater. European unity is a cornerstone of the world order, and we can't afford to lose it. Once you let that cat out of the bag, you are placing yourself at risk of losing everything you've built. There can be no economic growth, no prosperity, without political stability - And there is no political stability in a world of war.

Poor Leftists are described as poor or impoverished. Poor Rightists are described as uneducated or undereducated.

You can continue lying brazenly if you want, but the evidence is out there. You lost control of the narrative. No go zones full of violent muslim savages are now a part of the public's general knowledge. Sorry!
White nationalist talking points are becoming mainstream. Your lies and dishonesty are no longer effective. Must sting!

Dunno.
People with actual degrees that produce value in the market are more conservative. People with trade skills are more conservative.
The majority of the voting block for liberals, consists of unemployed youth, middle-aged wives/stay-at-homes, Muslims, LBGT and everything in between.
The second any of those people become hard working Americans, they turn into conservatives. Which is why older married couples are more likely to be conservative, because they want more money for their family, and not to be taxed to death.

It's just that Trump supporters were retarded to begin with, not retarded solely because they're voting for Trump.

Because they're literal fedora-tippers. They also all have women's study PhDs, which are about as hard to get as a kindergarten graduation, but since they're PhDs (i.e. mind fedoras), they like to tip it like so.

okay, I'll spell out some simple concepts for you. lower pound means that imported goods cost more pounds to buy if the item is traded in dollars for example. this incentivises Britain to manufacture their own goods to offset the cost to obtain those goods. it also means that their goods will become more competitively priced on the market. British clothing and electronics if made to high quality standards could then become in demand and more affordable.
all of thr people snatching up GBP in US dollars are basically investing in the Brexit, assuming they will become more valuable and in demand.

Why are you making economic arguments for the sovereignty and independence of the UK? Don't fall into that trap.
If he could convince you it were economically beneficial for the UK to stay in the EU and keep its borders porous would you accept it? Think about what you truly value before you embark on tangents.

New York Post is basically a tabloid. Maybe if you had gone to college, you would know how to differentiate a reputable source from a bad one.

I have a science degree from one of the best universities in the world by 20 and I'm not a big lefty. But that's because my father was a truck driver and my mother a housewife. I think its a class issue because everyone on my facebook feed that's raging are very well off

>i was X before too, but then i discovered Y and found out how dumb i was! i don't judge you, you are dumb too, come to Y and you will be better than everyone else too, like me!
Lately this sentiment had come to infuriate me more than any other. I've caught myself saying it too. It's such a feel-good way of patronizing.
They like to see themselves as sophisticated, forward thinking "progressives" who are well informed on the issues the world is facing.

>if I can't cite it in my college papers it isn't true and no one will believe it anyway
Uneducated and lacking a college degree are two separate thoughts and issues.
Uneducated, someone who doesn't read at all. Has no original thought stemming from knowledge acquired and given to us by giants and titans on science and art. Lacking in context, eg. they don't follow what goes on in their daily lives, both big and small.
They don't seek knowledge with the understanding that they will never truly have it. Self acquired knowledge, understanding the world around you on basic levels, eg. your senses.
Lack of a college degree? Pick the following;
1) I see no value in college, because college is for suckers.
2) I see no value in going to a low tier college and wasting money, I should try to earn some money and work on myself as an individual before I take on the responsibility of debt as large as this. Life choices are just that, choices.
tl;dr
You truly are retarded if you aren't capable of at least skimming something and need it summarized so neatly. No post here has even been longer than an abstract on a research paper. Use your brain, moran.

No, it's not about that at all. It's about finding useful and reliable information. New York Post is well-known for posting hysterical nonsense in order to advance a particular narrative.

it's a common rhetorical tactic. instead of arguing the point, you psychologize your opponent and thereby win the argument. c.s. lewis has talked about it:

What is "it"? White nationalist talking points are quickly becoming mainstream. Your side is losing the narrative war because it doesn't line up with most people's experiences and observations.
You're incredibly out of touch if you think "not an academic source lol :p" is a strong rebuttal. what kind of pointdexter are you?

To get back to your original question, OP, being uneducated is a popular insult because we, the educated, keep coming here and seeing all the breathtakingly stupid things you uneducated people keep saying and believing and we have no choice. Don't worry though. Simply get an education and you can, too, can laugh at the enfeebled.
>>78614321
HAHAHAHA.
I use it just to bait out people like you, it's as if you're a flounder and my trip is the little itty bitty fish that swims by. You can't help but jump.

1 post by this ID. Y u du dis?
Met a new buddy at my retail job I work at while I go to school for a CS major.
He is a cool guy but he went to college for a sociology major. We were talking and politics came up and I explained why affirmative action was BS and leftist ideology is completely based on low self esteem. I was rational and use facts and he wasn't able to make a counter argument. He was cool about it.
Gonna hang out with him soon and possibly drop heavy redpills, I think I am in a good position to explain the jews...

I remember my sociology teacher telling me men and women are mentally the same but society encourages men to act and think like men and women to act and think like women.
And then later in the class he said that transgenders are men who were born with female brains or women who were born with male brains.
And I was like, do you not see that both of those things can't be true at the same time?
Science my ass. Sociology is bullshit.
