In their minds, Progressivism/Socialism/Communism = Intellectualism.
We do no have a “post-industrial” society no matter how much more “technology” we are using. Everything “technology” needs in terms of hardware is a product of industrial production, and a good part of the use of technology is in industrial production of everything else.

Correct! We outsource our production to other countries and then pat ourselves on the back for how “advanced” we are. Honestly, it’s the same thing with agriculture too.
I especially enjoyed O Club conversations with fighter pilots. One night, I was getting into it with a 1st LT, he was very critical of my unit, and I wasn’t putting up with it. A Major came over and scolded the pilot: “You need to show this Army LT a bit more respect. He’s worth a full point on Base Survivability during alerts.”
I was the Wing Commander’s unofficial advisor on NBC inputs, after correctly recommending the proper course of action when his AF “expert” overreacted. I was just in the right place at the right time. NBC Officer was one of my extra duties at my battery.
The three “intellectual” women that Miss Couric undoubtedly admires the most - Hillary Clinton, Michelle Obama and Kamala Harris - all flunked the bar exam. Who you calling “stupid”, Rapidly Aging Perky One?
Exactly right. Where does all this tech come from? Industry of course, but sadly not nearly enough American industry. People who make things are very important to economic prosperity. You cannot solve every problem with an app.
We now live in an era coined by Ayn Rand as the Aristocracy of Pull. It’s thriving in the Deep State.
The obnoxious part is that she doesn’t realize that “intellectualism” is an oxymoron. Most ‘intellectuals’ live in a bubble and other than a few academic fields in which they specialize, are just complete morons in the real world.
This needs to be highlighted; that intellectual does not mean intelligent.
(most certainly almost any FReeper's IQ eclipses Perky's here)
"Intellectuals" gave us 'Critical Theory', Marxism, Communism, Critical Race Theory - and all its attendant garbage, misery, and death.
So as z3n says, they're not only morons, they're miserable morons.
Where is the Toilet?
I resent corrupt demented demon rats moving into conservative states.
Otherwise, if you’ve earned your money honestly then enjoy it.
One oft here’s the phrase biden intellectuals.
Some people say she’s an idiot.
Do you think she’s the one that gave the “Stupid Virus” to AOC?
If anyone fails the bar twice they should have to wait two years to take the test again... and if they fail that they should find a new profession.
True.
We’re tired of having our good paying jobs shipped overseas while the remaining blue collar jobs are undercut by cheap labor being imported by illegal aliens.
All the the “intellectuals” tell us we’re stupid/racists/selfish to raise our voices against this unelected invasion of America.
And all this same “class” tell us peons we need to use less electricity, petroleum and other resources while they have several house and jet across the world to their vacation homes.
So yeah, we are “resentful”

Who would ever believe a thing she said?
She's right about the contempt that people have for the people trying to globalize the world. But, she seems to be unaware that it's totally justified.
Well put.
My new mantra:
To paraphrase Biden, Supreme Leader, “If you vote Democrat, you ain’t smart.”
Yes, Katie, tell us more about how your hate is eating away at your insides.
