Educated beyond their intelligence.

Because they are not “college educated” they have been “leftist indoctrinated.”

Sadly, these days “college educated” often means college indoctrinated.

To paraphrase Ronald Reagan, it’s not that college students are ignorant, it’s that they are taught so much that isn’t so.

As I stated moments ago in another thread:

Education. Pop culture. Media. Three vehicles that contribute to the dumbing down of America and the brainwashing of the impressionable “yoots.” Imagine if Trump said “Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country...” The snowflakes in the liberal press would castigate the statement to no end.

Because they have been programmed to say that by their America-hating, Marxist “professors”. They get “extra credit” for being a blithering idiot.

I’m college educated and white. I don’t think Trump is a racist. Granted, I graduated 20 years, but they’re not specifying proximity of graduation.

Because above all, a college education teaches you to be a conformist. College educated or not, the 24-hour a day gaslighting Coalition of the media is a powerful Force.

Not in my family. All college grads, all white and all conservative, except the 23 year old niece. (She is a vegetarian to save the planet, so who knows)

Let’s be careful who we lump into groups. College education didn’t always equate to Marxist indoctrination. I don’t have a beef with hard working Americans who pay their bills by working in the trades or elsewhere not requiring post-secondary education.

Exactly.

The first time I heard the leftist mantra “Black people cannot be racist”, I thought they were joking.

They were not. It is the Orwellian use of words to dominate and control.

No doubt. There are plenty exceptions to the rule.

Because the non-college whites didn’t have to sit in college classes where they were told they were nothing but shit. They probably didn’t have to sit in high school classes to that effect as much either, as they were spending their time trying to learn some useful skills.

The poll says 46 percent of educated whites do NOT think the President is fascist.

Well, I am college educated. I don’t think he is a racist. Did hey break it down by age?

In my education experience we looked at policies and their impacts. There was no judgement preached..until we left class. And we all thoughtCarter was an idiot.

I'm not sure if you're trolling or not. The article pretty clearly states:

46 percent of survey respondents who are white and have a college degree said they believe “the main motive behind President Trump’s immigration policies” is his "racist beliefs.”

Good reason to cut education spending, especially from the fed. Why fund domestic enemies?

“Educated beyond their intelligence.”

Because as with milk and hamburger patties they have only a vague idea where money comes from.
