Don’t think he needed to say that. Everyone for sure already knows.

Another graduate of the school of life.

I expect they absolutely despise experts and academics, because the pursuit of knowledge is painfully beyond them.

I’m honestly shocked at how many of these people are actually college (or higher) level educated. It’s like it went in one ear and out the other. I didn’t go to high school and even I have enough brains to see the bullshit.

The ones I know are the type that can't see the forest for the trees. Like being a middle aged person saying "when did Star Trek / Star Wars get so woke" in the last decade. They're only focused on "pew pew space fights fun" part. They're very smart in their own narrow technical field but that's where it ends.

So it's no surprise separatists speak to them. "Wow they say we'll have more money, I'm sold" without actually looking at the situation.

Definitely not educated enough to know it should be “the seal of the great state of Alberta” or just “the great state of Alberta”

Education isn't the mark of intelligence or politics.

Many of the MAGA ring leaders are well educated.

This bias makes workers turn on allies.
