Will the world ever stop being anti-intellectual?

One of the most aggravating things to me in this world has to be the absolutely rampant anti-intellectualism that dominates so many conversations and debates, and its influence just seems to be expanding. Do you think there will ever actually be a time when this ends? I'd hope so once people become more educated and cultural changes eventually happen, but as of now it honestly infuriates me like few things ever have.

Only when people stop giving credence to the argument that you don't actually need to read or learn math or science to get a job and pay your bills.

Video calls and recordings. Chatgpt. Why will future generations need scripture and math for everybody?

Some should learn it though.
