      Because how do you define people are educated or not is impossible.
      Do you define them by degree, wealth, or what?
      For example, I believe religion is fake, anyone believe in religion is uneducated, and they don’t get to vote.
      Religious people might believe that I’m not religious that not educated enough so I can’t vote....

      In America this thoughtful discussion and observation of life is not talent that needs to be listened to and rewarded with your vote. Sitting in important briefings not listening but writing names to smear your political rivals now that talent that will be rewarded by your vote. Stupid Steve banon, no sloppy Steve yess👍. Cheating Hilary, no crooked Hillary bingo🥳. Untruthful Ted no lying ted you are the one☝️I’m number one.

      If you are "educated" and think in the wrong manner that is worse than not thinking or being educated at all. You will be in greater error and worse than the place you started from.

    waching this in 2021, i can't but notice the echo chamber : academics mentioning the 'relevance' of people the public doesn't hear about (hello advertising based news media). makes me sad, these people don't realize that their personal position too high in the social hierarchies to be really, in action and not just in speech, be motivated to push for change. conservatives know it, that's why they're getting bolder at assaulting educational entities: the other side wants business to go as usual, which is disastrous when dealing with autocratic opportunists. them quick and irresponsible and that pays off in the short term. in the medium you have the intellectuals implicitly on your side. in the long everyone is gaslit enough to have normalized trumpo, or the next fascist .
    no academic has produced one single piece of practical leadership, but for those black lawyers who dared proposing CRT, and look how helpful the rest of academics have been in guiding the public not to be mystified about it. zero solidarity, but the usual classist one, that make intellectuals betray their alleged prosocial role.
    at least european education is affordable, for being a part of the propaganda machine, but as the US has achieved the reagan dream, i lost all respect for american universities, Cornell included. you have zero courage. zero usefulness under the circumstances.

      Most Americans were in total disbelief when 9/11 happened. Most did not want to hear or take seriously the warning that it could happen. Most, I suspect, would have written off the warnings as fear-mongering.

    No demagoguery here... for an adult like him to use fear tactics to scare young impressionable minds toward his political agenda is shameful at best and agenda-driven manipulation at worst. Why a professor can’t just teach without scaring people into buying his books to ingratiate himself, is beyond me. But I’m old enough to know better... shame on you but you won’t stop. Too much money in it for you.

    This dude...way over-hyped. He has a vast array of big intellectual words. It's too bad that he uses them most often to inject his personal political ideals into his expressions of the intellectual-elitist-disconnected-from-reality world he lives in...and it's a world swiss-cheesed by the many holes of hypocrisy that are born from educated bubbles of the people who think they should be in n the world management business.
