      Higher education is raw indoctrination. The tell is that graduates are nearly all of the same political faith. (Regurgitation masquerading as independent thought)

      Unlikely. You would have to show the political preferences before they started college to determine whether there is an effect. More likely that better educated families (which are more liberal) produce kids that go to college at higher rates.

      Being "educated" is a status game with rules that align with political ideology. Children are taught to desire education (status). So they often accept the political faith of their proffessors, 90% Dem. Which is why the educated incessantly virtue-signal. Shows superior status.

          Your blanket derision of higher education falls apart once you move focus to countries that don't put up massive financial barriers to access higher education. I can only recall one lecturer pushing her views on us. The rest were more interested in fostering a climate of debate.

          The problem with US universities is that too many students of varying political leanings prefer attending rallies to engaging in debate. Some colleges fight this, others capitulate to wealthy fee paying students and only feed them what they want to hear. Customers is right et al

          Primates are wired to intuit social status. Being "educated" has always been a way to separate for the uninitiated. Often it becomes an ideology. In the past they were Malthusians or Eugenicists. Today they're anti-white, anti-male, anti-free-speech. https://twitter.com/TokenHash/status/1028837566542270465?s=19 …

          I think Stephen Fry sums up my position in this clip perfectly. I would position myself as left of centre on the x axis and libertarian on the y. I was actually far more left leaning entering university than I was leaving, due to being pushed to debate.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_W_npyI7Xsw# …

          I can't discern Fry's political positions. But as a personal philosophy his views sound reasonable. I'm a fan of human rights, such as free-speech. And skeptical of government involvement outside of maintaining them. I avoid labeling myself lest ideology think for me.

          His position is very similar to my own, in that it's hard for me to even pin down, albeit I have a bit more of a libertarian streak. I read a definition of 'left libertarian' somewhere, which kind of fits. But ultimately I am a secular humanist, so reason is my guide.

          Spoken like someone who has never set foot inside a college classroom.
