Some of them are plenty smart - they got good grades and went to good colleges and have professional jobs. They’re engineers, teachers, what have you. And they’re probably perfectly good at their jobs, and they think because they’ve made it that far and see so many people doing worse, they assume they’re just better.
As
said, “It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on his not understanding it.”
Building on this, capitalism associates a person’s worth to how much money they have, not the fact living things are inherently valuable with their own thoughts and ideas. Libs have completely internalized this idea.
So the lib who is good at their job, makes decent money, and spent a lot on their education sees themselves as valuable not because they’re a person, but because they aren’t poor. And only smart people become wealthy, so obviously none of the wealthy are fascists or stupid (unlike the poors). This then creates their classicism.
