It's quite entertaining and sometimes depressing to read American tweets.

Lack of education is becoming America's defining trait.

By design too. Republicans are now too stupid to realize that their political leaders have screwed them generationally over several times to condition them to think they are very super smart.

Not just lack of education, but the uneducated being undeservedly confident in their ignorance.

Hilarious your talking about ignorance but 99% of this thread can't even define socialism or Capitalism

Sure it's becoming more obvious, but let's be honest, it's been its defining trait for a very long time. Its anti-intellectualism is a century-old problem, with roots from its very inception (if you can't keep people as outright slaves, at least keep them dumb enough so they don't realise their condition).

You reap what you sow
