      While Marxists obviously think their worldview is correct (cause that's how believing something works...), I don't think many of them actually believe that their political opinions come from the fact that their brains just plain work better than everyone else's.

        Correct. It's the application of Scientific Socialism mixed with trying to think of the most stupidest possibilities that our bougeoise overlords will take.

      That's a great theory. This is why ignorance is learned. Once you reject the ambiguity of everything you alienate your relationship with reality.

      The logic of accumulation, the banking model of education, and the logic of capitalist bureaucracy is all the ideological conviction that forceful imposition of the quantitative onto the qualitative turns all qualities into quantities. Thus they are obviously essentially endowed in their qualities, look at their quantities!!!

      It's the same logic as American Evangelicals: I'm obviously a good person because I'm successful which means God loves me, therefore everything I do must be good and I'll make up whatever theology/morality to justify my actions. If I fuck up it's a momentary lapse and doesn't reflect on my character, but if I see "those people" fucking up (based on my morality) it's a reflection of their degeneracy.

    In every circle of Libs that I have to see, this is the prevailing opinion. It's not that they could be wrong at all. It's just that Trump voters are stupid and racist. And if we somehow just mindlessly pump more money into E D U C A T I O N then they'll all become Libs too, easy peasy. They think they've got it all figured out and they still don't understand that going to college doesn't magically make you liberal, being from a socioeconomic class that allows you to attend college and integrate into collegiate social groups does.

    Us liberals live in a bubble, but damn near half the country voted for [Trump]

    okay, you're getting there

    I truly believe the liberals to be woke to the world and how it really runs, but we have to do a better job explaining things to our less intelligent brethren

    AAAAAAAAAAAAHH
