@Paulos_the_fog Rural US politicians, who are looking to score otherwise harmless points with their base constituents. The harsh thing is you don't know whether to believe they believe this stuff, or if they're pander-lying.

Frankly, it's been at least a little like this since the 70's, but no one bothered to look. It's how the rich got so rich, and Roe was overturned.

So what you are saying is that most/many rural voters in the US are complete fuckin imbeciles, yes?

@Paulos_the_fog Calling people names Nazi eugenicists coined probably isn't the smartest thing to do, so no.

Fighting for funding for public education that parents want to help build, yes.

A superiority complex exhibited by a self-styled intellectual elite, whether online or via wealth, is just going to build hate. It's rather stupid to engage with that.
