Because it makes us feel like we're involved in events - even if we have no control over how they play out?

How is attacking higher education supposed to work for these guys? It’s true that regardless of income people with at least a bachelor’s degree are more likely to lean democratic. But it’s also true that among the less educated only the upper middle and well off are more likely to lean republican.

I guess, maybe, you don’t have to worry about the vast majority of us. You really only need to destroy the opportunities of that small minority of highly effective well educated opponents. The rest of us could all be democrats and it wouldn’t matter, what are we going to do about it anyway?

—meh, it’s probably not that deep as the kids say. They just hate a liberal education.

I just don't think they like the idea of ideas competing with theirs.

they don't actually have ideas, you need a brain in working order for that.
