This is the dumbest comment I've seen on lemmy yet.

I seen a couple of these typical youtube commenters. "Left-leaning university", shut the fuck up jeez. They are either completely lost here, or intentionally trolling, or pursuing their victim complex by venturing into enemy territory.

They've uniformly spent no time in or around academics. Most went to no school except "school of the hard knocks" as they like to say (not accredited).

Sure. Some of them went to college, but went in with pre-existing authoritarian sympathy, and learned next to nothing, doubting the evidence before their own eyes every day. These people call everything they disagree with fake news, having been educated only in ignoring evidence before their own eyes and ears, masters of cognitive dissonance.

Some of them are definitely trolling. They went to ivy leagues and know they are lying not just about why education trends leftward but about everything else too. Such as Tucker Carlson and Trump, who knows Trump lost and who are both vaccinated, for example. They know climate change is anthropogenic and they don't care because it won't affect their lifestyles.

You forgot the third option. That some of then are still in high school.

Well the first part is spot on...

Actually, there are numerous trades and other careers where you dont go to college and do very well.

The second part, not so much...

But please keep voting for people with degrees in History because thats working out awesomely.

Aren't most lawyers anyways?

Elaborate?

IIRC most of Congress started as lawyers. Could be wrong.

So apologies for not getting this, but what does that have anything to do with my comment that you originally replied to?

You were responding to someone stating they were history majors.
