Why are academics and successful, intelligent people overwhelmingly left wing?
Whilst ignorant uneducated people who plow fields for a living and have never left their flyover county are right wing.
Almost as if one group actually knows what they are talking about and are correct whilst the other group is just parroting talking points they heard on Fox news.

What are you talking about? It’s the niggers, illegals, and welfare leaches who are all liberals, faggot. Hard working tax payers vote conservative.

Those who can't "do", teach. Academia is full of a leftists because they could get other job in their field. The average professor in America is someone who is better at talking about something over actually doing it. It's pretty typical for lefties.

Colour me surprised. OP do you think it's easier and safer for universities to just condemn and fire the odd dissident, or to defend them and pay their legal fees and put up with lawsuits and slander?

What’s smart? A college education?
I can be educated on a flat earth conspiracy, or educated on catholic interpretations of scripture.
Does that make me smart? No...
Intelligence and education are two different things, slightly similar however.

Academics are generally extremely sheltered and often have not left the education system since they entered it at five years of age.

I read this as ‘why are wildly unproductive people left wing and why are productive people right wing’. I don’t think most intelligent people (who all the college educated merely learn about) really worry too much about left or right. No person I respect identifies as either or they are Dino or rinos

That's why literally every successful country on the planet is a capitalist nation. The idea of communism is alright. It isn't great but it is ok. The people supporting it are the most insufferable asswipes on this planet. You would struggle in any society as a weak man with feminine features. Nothing to do with capitalism but rather with nature. We can only hope that you freaks haven't hijacked too many Normies, yet.
Matthew Reed

Christian Gomez
Uneducated doesn't mean stupid. They just didn't want to get into massive debt to be forced to learn liberal bullshit. I actually prefer my workers to have some experience working with their hands than a degree. They are more fun to be around and they don't have that annoying sense of entitlement.
Isaac Stewart
Hard working from the ground up with their own two hands success stories do tend to vote (R) leeches like professors and doctors who wiggle heir way into infrastructures, vote (D).

If Communism can feed a family of four, then how did it starve over 100m people in a single century?
And don't bother responding with the infographic attributing volcanic eruptions to capitalism.

So basically right wingers are too retarded to adapt to economic change
Meanwhile left wingers in cities like New York always stay ahead of the trends and we are rewarded for our hard work with higher salaries
Carson Howard

Actually, the answer is simple (no troll). Most of the right seldom invests in education because not only it ensures their exclusivity but it also gives margin for less taxes to higher brackets.

(((educated))) =/= intelligent. If anything, being (((educated))) just shows how willing a person is to forego critical thinking skills in exchange for money (in the form of high paying job) and group acceptance. The ultimate badge of being a sheep.

Carson Parker
>Why are academic...people overwhelmingly left wing? Because they value only the individual when it suits them. They also do no real work and none of the learning they are a part of is applicable in the real world. They also don't have to live with the consequences of thier policies and actions
>Whilst...people who plow fields for a living and have never left their flyover county are right wing Because they value the group (family) dynamic more. They also understand the value in working as a cohesive group to progress as a people. They are the people who have to live with the consequences of the policies made by academics
>Almost as if one group actually knows what they are talking about and are correct whilst the other group is just parroting talking points they heard on Fox news Now that's just ignorant neighbour. Ivory league academics are just louder than the people who work for a living. Its hard to being an online slacktavist when you're 9 to 5'ing. When you depend on yourself to survive and not the government or the school you work for, you are a very different person
tl:dr Academics neither work for a living nor deal with the consequences of thier actions. Right wingers usually do have to deal with the consequences of ignorant academic people in thier day to day lives
Hunter White
because they snuck into power and practice nepotism, cronyism, and have a wrongthink persecution syndrome. Successful ones realize this is how they themselves got in, and need to continue this propagation if they want their way of life to continue.
The intellect they have is self-proclaimed; under scrutiny or stress, it crumbles, and they must adhere to their most basic defense. If a distraction cannot be made which focuses entirely on the way they (and their party alone) perceive something, they appeal emotionally, or shut down the conversation immediately and find a place where what they declare will not be questioned.
They can't fix their own light switches, weld, perform techincal work without a supporting group, and have no real craftsman. If their toilet chain unhooks in the bowl, they must call a professional for a 3 second fix. For their civilians, they are smart enough to know that an emotion that makes them feel good is good, and they will vote for the politician that practices that. They are only useful as a voting bloc, and as consumers to keep the economy of taxes flowing.

Are you stupid? The steel industry left because of cheap, low tariff steel imports. The coal employees fewer people because of automation and a shift away from use. What is the communist solution for this? Not every county can have a major port city or the center of culture for a region.

The truth of what? That your ideology which has claimed the lives of hundreds of millions, if not billions of people and literally never succeeded to create a prosperous, stable, safe state anywhere at any time is really the correct path?

Landon Cook
Prior to the 1960's, American university professors were overwhelmingly conservative. In the 1960's, during the various movements of social upheaval, the Left agitated for greater "free speech" rights for the few Leftist professors who existed in academia -- primarily in California -- It was called the Free Speech Movement. Those teachers were granted increased protections from being fired, and were allowed to express their political views more freely in the classroom. Gradually, the administrations of these institutions also became Left-wing. Conservatives were slowly driven out of the schools. Daily reminder that our formerly most elite institutions -- Harvard, Yale, etc. -- were founded and made great by almost exclusively conservative religious white men. The modern concept of academia as being intrinsically Progressive and Left-wing is entirely new in history.

That's because they would have killed him for saying it, because the communists knew their system had failed and had to stop people from speaking the truth to keep it stable.
Academia tends to grow detached from the lives of ordinary people since they immerse themselves in abstractions and statistics.

>Whilst ignorant uneducated people who plow fields for a living and have never left their flyover county are right wing. I live in upstate NY. I fucking hate failure like you condescending pretentious fucktards without a single fucking accomplishment to their names, want to steal other peoples money, give it to themselves and their "friends" (people like that don't really have friends), and the picture in your OP is a man, looking down on large swaths of people yet where is he? He is in school a man old and grey, trying to claim legitimacy from a lifetime of childhood child-like activity. I can understand your admiration, if only you, too, can fool the world into believing you aren't worthless...
Leo Walker
guess that explains why all the smart cities have so many homeless people.
Hunter Price
They meant it can only feed a family of four, while free economy creates actual wealth. Unironically, the comparison of socialism/communism with a pizza is underrated

Jacob Lee
The entire base for left-wing parties is low-IQ nonwhites, and retarded shrieking women who just parrot talking points they hear on CNN, Buzzfeed, HuffPo, Rebbit or their Tumblr blogs.
The reason why academia is so left-wing is simply because of the "long march through the institutions".
When the Soviet Union was still around, Marxists and Jews infiltrated Western institutions with their ideology. They started what was called a "long march through the institutions" to gradually change Western culture, destroy it, and make it open to communism by taking over positions in churches, universities and schools, media, etc. Hired each other through nepotism, kicked out conservatives or "scientific racists", etc.
It's what's been happening since the 60s, institutions were infiltrated & changed with Frankfurt School ideology so colleges could become indoctrination camps rather than places of learning.
It's why you now have colleges that stifle the free speech of even kosher, tepid conservatives like Ben Shapiro & Milo. Then fire or simply don't hire anyone who oppose the leftist narrative.
Here you have an ex-KGB agent admitting that political science is nothing but left-wing indoctrination in most Canadian & American colleges.

Do Canadian gun laws let you go out right now and buy a 9mm? I really hope so so you can shoot yourself in the goddamn temple and never post such bullshit again.
It's a complex issue, OP, but if I had to take a shot at it, it's because higher education requires openness and critical thinking in order to understand the material given. It's really fucking easy to have an IQ of 80 and sit in your mother's basement in bumfuck Alabama and blame the blacks, Jews, and Mexicans for everything. Not quite so easy to understand "Das Kapital" or "The Phenomenology of Spirit" when you're a retard that believes in hierarchy.
