Why are red conservative states under educated? Is it because they have a distrust of science and universities?

there's a logical fallacy in which a conclusion is just ASSUMED in the question!..for instance, "why does Barack Obama hate poor people?"..see?

you see them on here saying college is just "indoctrination"... they have a fear of education... this social distrust means that they don't properly fund education and do not push their children to get an education as often...

"Oh hey, look, I've been more indoctrinated by progressives than you, ha!" That's basically what I read.

Because they won't spend any money on schools. I know, I live here.

Its because they don't acknowledge the existence of science and universities.

So let me see if I have this right: what you are saying is that all your blue states are full of 1%-ers who need to redistribute their wealth to all us dumb hicks to both be "fair" and not be hypocrites. Finally we have someone who admits that all that "social justice" BS means is money for Dems. BTW: education is subjective if you are brainwashed into believing you are right and they are wrong... oh, and that probably makes you some kind of racist or something for using a stereotype to describe people en masse.

Why do state college kids like you have an illusion of being elite?

Yes! They want to ban STEM because they think it refers to marijuana.

"There are two extremes to be avoided: one is the attitude of contempt toward education, the other is the tragic snobbery of assuming that marching through an educational system is a sure cure for ignorance and mediocrity."
