Because they are actually educated and smart unlike the uneducated hateful rural conservashit trash that is trying to destroy this country.

Do not reply to obvious bait threads.
Report them.

At some point, right wings find careers before they splurge an unnecessary amount of money

College is for people too dumb to learn by themselves.

I'm not breaking any rules.

I thought they got rid of saging a long time ago

Good luck getting any job above McDonalds without one, or getting any respect from women if you are not educated and white collar worker.

The brainwashing of publicly funded (((institutions))) enters its final phase.

educated=/= indoctrinated into a false belief system based on manipulation.

Start your own company.

Dude you're 16 years old as fuck.

This, only cucks work for others.

>educated
You answered your own question.

This. FPBP.

Posting this stupid image should be an instant ban

A degree in gender studies = smart ?

>College is for people too dumb to learn by themselves.

as much as cucked college humanites are, there isnt much DIY version of "intellectual trainining" as even the most cucked college gives you.
there is a huge gap in intellectual eloquence between ourguys who went to college, rejected the programming and ourguys who just watched yt videos.

...

Obviously not everyone with a degree is smart and not everyone without one is dumb as dirt.

brainwashing

Common sense>Book Learning

because they're women and women are more likely to be socialist

Because most people in college study sociology / humanities and the humanities are leftist bullshit.

>educated
That's a good one. Gender studies much?

That depends on which college we are talking about.
The social meme arts college education,
or the STEM + Economics + Law college education.

Fucking horseshit. They're not questioning anything these days, they're mostly learning by rote. All the work goes into rewording essays to avoid plagiarism detection and twisting data to fit the narrative.

A degree is a minimum for most jobs now. I wouldn't hire anyone who didn't have a degree

As someone who just finished his master's, it's always really funny watching people perpetuate the narrative that colleges are some political-centered echo chamber, let alone a liberal one. You people that have never attended college have very interesting thoughts on what happens and what is studied there.

>1 postby this ID
really makes me think

I have a stem degree and a business degree and I'm as 1488 as it gets, nigger

Because they are not really educated at all. It's basically remember this shit for the exam and then you'll have your piece of paper. The system is set up on a way that if you are not indoctrinated you won't get a high paying job.

Going to college is like going yo a new school. Yu want to fit in. for most students, it is their first tie away from home so they are apprehensive, but also willing to try new things. In colleges, there is an enormous peer pressure. the whole system is hierarchical. professors, because they failed at life are pinched libtards and will give you bad grades if you go against their dictate.

Because "education" in this day and age means taking 6 sociology classes before you can get your degree. Brain washing.

Meanwhile republicans are actually making more money doing tile cutting, mechanic stuff, welding, oil rigging, all the stuff they learned from trade school while Sarah from uni is a barista with her stupid arts degree.

Kek for this silly outdated meme from the 90s

>They're not questioning anything these days, they're mostly learning by rote. All the work goes into rewording essays to avoid plagiarism detection and twisting data to fit the narrative.

depends on the major you are in - majors like logics or philosophy are still suprisingly high in free think. even other humanities can be profitable IF YOU CAN COUNTER THE SPOOFEDDING OF IDEOLOGY, but most people cant.

That doesnt mean humanities are good life choice, but under above listed conditions, they help with sharpening the blade. YT education is why so many pollacks worship internet memes like Peterson, but in reality we have far better intellectuals.

college is a scam, but we shouldnt be against higher ed in principle. it has a place in society.

>Why do people who go to an indoctrination camp become indoctrinated?

Intelligence does not protect you from brainwashing.

There's no point having a sharp blade if all you do is sit in your room crying and cutting yourself.

Because they've usually never experienced the real world. They're mostly pampered middle-class kids who have been cradled from birth onwards. They are entitled people who don't understand the value of anything and haven't had to understand the consequences of overspending.

>majors like logics or philosophy are still suprisingly high in free think
I don't think it's fair to compare the freethink state of majors in our Eastern European dumps that went through experiencing the stink of both the left spectrum and the right spectrum politics, in a topic about Westerners who are yet to experience a significant part of what we have.

>my topic is peer pressure, a boring and obvious subject every person over the age of 7 has knowledge of
>let's talk about it
no

school, college and universities are similar to a socialist enviroment. you are inferior by definition and can only succeed, if you accept that and make the best of it. it can be a healthy experience, but that changes quite naturally as soon as you take responsibility for yourself and others. if people do not change, it just means that they think they are in line now to be the superior: bit like "they gave me a hard time, now it's my turn".

I use mine to draw on the wall

>They're mostly pampered middle-class kids who have been cradled from birth onwards. They are entitled people who don't understand the value of anything and haven't had to understand the consequences of overspending.

total snobs also.

>I don't think it's fair to compare the freethink state of majors in our Eastern European dumps

even majors of philosophy and logics at Western colleges arent filled with meme leftists, philosophy and logics isnt even an easy major.

This. The more developed and well rounded your brain, the more you see the stupidity and hypocrisy of the GOP party.

i would like to see a statistic on the effect of IQ vs education on political leaning. pretty sure education has a far stronger effect.

interesting though that minorites tend to vote 90%+ left. however, the indoctrination doesn't seem to work on them the same way as educated minorities tend to vote 80-85% left. it has the reverse effect on them which is pretty interesting.
i am sure someone can post the poll that is showing this.

College teaches you how to learn NOTHING.

It teaches you how to be brainwashed.
Unless your training to be a doctor a lawyer or similar skilled labor in 2018 your literally being brainwashed.

Typical leaf.

>Why do college-educated people tend to be leftist?

They aren't.

More college educated whites voted for Trump.

I believe the poll you are looking for is here

yes, and you see the whites with no degree
>from 28% democrat to 45%
that effect is big league

They tred to vote for the dems, look your pic...

Liberal people do not vote because they hate Clinton

And 67% of non educated voted for Trump

college is "free" shit to them because of retardation.

Because College-Educated™ people often fall into the trap of thinking that they know everything just because they went to college.

...

>More college educated whites voted for Trump.

>37% college voters

this is pleasently surprising.

I disagree to an extent.

Trade school and tech schools in America are a fraction of the cost, don't require all the "core" classes like sociology, are way faster, only focus on what you're doing, don't require a certain GPA from high school, give you a certificate certifying you in what you're doing instead of a "degree" that says you sucked a professor off for 4-8 years, and are typically only in things that are actually useful.

I think all colleges should be done away with and we should just have trade schools instead that train you in what you're doing without the bull shit.

i don't think it is the exact poll i was thinking about but it indeed shows the same trend, to no surprise desu

Yeah on a percentage basis it looks like Trump got most of his votes from college educated whites, which completely destroys the media narrative of "uneducated hicks got Trump into the white house".

people who graduate college are fucking retarded

depends on the degree. chemistry fag, everyone in my program was apolitical or conservative.

(((teachers)))

>CNN Source

Conservative, gun-loving, Trump voting professional engineer here and you are wrong. People who graduated with liberal arts degrees in hilarious subjects from the humanities might lean left, but actually smart and hard working people tend to be conservative.

Rather than education, the split tends to be where folks actually have something to lose. Starving international studies students who can't or won't find a career and will take 30 years to pay off their loans love the left though.

Probably because they gain the skills to see through the arguments of the right.

Rich kids or Poor kids are generally lefties..the kids in the middle listen to shit all day and it makes sense to some of them

>I think all colleges should be done away with and we should just have trade schools

but you are making a bad consequence conclusion from a time bubble of left dominated academia.

Sure college today is a total money and ideological scam, but you wouldnt make the same conclussion in early 19th century? Would you ban chemistry college or idk law schools? We need college people, that doesnt mean they should all be trained as leftists snobs.

didn't the unabomber outline this like 30 years ago?

Because college is a Khazar Jew network. They are going to stack the cards against their opposition while still keeping a facade that their people in power are fair and just. We know they are not through a world of evidence though.

Truth.

Conservatism generally appeals only to those who have something to conserve.

11-1 ratios of democrat to republican party members among professors.
And these are the people you have to pander to if you want a degree.

I dont blame you for hating on (((Academia))) but always keep in mind that equality is a false God.

>didn't the unabomber outline this like 30 years ago?

yes he did, far ahead of his time, but he wasnt some basic bitch STEM worshipping rightwinger intellectual also. he was also woke on technocracy.

I do agree we need educated people, but in America our trade schools are far more efficient. It's basically what you described college should be where they don't train you, as it's the same as college but ONLY focused on what the student is actually going for.

If you're a welder, it trains you to weld. If you're a web dev, it trains you to code. There's no need for these shitty colleges at all in America aside for "you have to have it or you work at McDonalds" memes that aren't even true.

that's like asking why people who go to priest school all tend to lean Christian

After having been forced to realize that their plan of a violent revolution by the working class was not going to happen, leftists devised a plan b: The Great March Through the Institutions.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_long_march_through_the_institutions

Because they want their student loans paid for by the government and the democrats are the ones pushing that type of shit.

How stupid are you that's why most of the rich people are Republicans right? That's why the majority of Republicans on average make more money than Democrats right? Young Turk fans are the stupidest motherfukers in the world. Go back to your fucking sandbox you fucking degenerate.

>non-whites

It's great that people are learning to use this term. We are different.

((( (((college))) (((educated))) )))

The foundations that control universities made sure the chain of command was stacked with commies for the last 30 years.

>equality being false somehow means you can't strive to self improve towards ideal conditions
worst smuggie I have seen yet

They’ve been kicking conservatives out of education over the last 30 years. Some of them who are left can’t openly say they are conservative or libertarian because there are consequences for it.

>a time bubble of left dominated academia
What kind of alternate dimension are you living in? If you're basing your conclusions on former-Soviet countries I can see why this might be valid in that sphere, but you'd also be a parochial mongoloid for thinking that counts for anything in the real world.

Would drill and demand she call me Alex Jones

Because truth leans left. Instead of bible thumping morons? Maybe?

>I do agree we need educated people, but in America our trade schools are far more efficient.

for giving you money and income - offcourse. but that isnt the path everyone should follow. I would say that even STEM colleges are too much of a waste of time if you plan on being a web dev.

>equality being false somehow means you can't strive to self improve towards ideal conditions

how do you come to anti-selfimprov conclussion from my critique of STEMworshiping. can you expand?

>What kind of alternate dimension are you living in?

bong education. your academia during Victorian times was right wing and racist to the core. That is why racial studies and athropology of late 19th centuries are censored to the core. academia being leftwing starts from early to mid 20th century (communism basicaly).

Because nowadays most people that go to college, have no business being there in the first place. The standards are very low. So those weak minded people are more susceptible to Marxist indoctrination.

Noone in this thread has hit the mark thus far.

The higher you climb up the social ladder the more important it is to conform to social norms. Political affiliation is a social norm that's mostly being dictated by the pop-cultural media students consume and enforced by the students themselves. You don't want to be the odd one out, do you?

>The higher you climb up the social ladder the more important it is to conform to social norms.

another woke pill is that academia isnt inherently left or right, its just the pillar of the system that reflects its values in a time frame. So pure anti-intellectualism isnt advisable...it is to an extent doe.

They are the same assholes from the Russian Revolution 100 years ago with the same shit ideology, only now they are rebranded as liberals.

Trump won the college educated White vote.

Easy. Because they're educated. Leftism, or liberalism, is the idea that things can change over time, and that you alter your opinion based on new data.

Rightism, or conservatism, is the idea that you just stick to your guns no matter what, don't change your ideas based on new data, maintain the status quo. Those on the right actually think "But marriage has alwaaaaaays been defined as between a man and a woman" as some kind of rational argument. They can't conceive of things changing.

Basically, leftism is science and rightism is belief.

Another way to look at it is that rightism is literally a mental disease. It's no surprised that where the educated people are, that's where you find leftists. I'm sorry if that makes you sad, but it's the truth. Leftists are just smarter.

That’s what’s amazes me with trump supporters. The guy kissed evangelicals ass. Why would you guys want to lumped in with those mouth breathers.

Trade Schools are growing Popularity. You get trained for a Career without all of the extra bull shit, for a fraction of the cost and time. Colleges have become overpriced indoctrination camps. You can go get your expensive degree, eat the ass out of a Liberal Professors who has never worked outside of a School in their life. Then take your degree and a lifetime of debt and pretend that you are now somehow more intelligent. Meanwhile the person who went to trade school has paid off their loan already has had a Career for years and is already making double what you are at the same age. But yeah, College Education makes you a fucking Genius.

Get outta here! no one wants to hear sensible thoughts

>another woke pill is that academia isnt inherently left or right, its just the pillar of the system that reflects its values in a time frame.

Yeah, exactly. During a right-wing age universities would be full of conservatives. Academics are the most conformist people I've ever met.

Nothing wrong with trade schools. And going to college doesn’t mean your smarter.

Indoctrination. Typical college students are young and malleable so they are readily inculcated into progressivism.

I was a progressive until I went to college in my 30s and was able to see through all the transparent brainwashing and went full 1488.
