    They are uneducated. Simple as that.

    They know how to build & destroy, and that’s it

    Because people who get s***ty degrees s*** on them and Trump defends them.

    I HAV DEGREE IN POLITICAL SCIENCE AND UHH FACTORY WORKER DUMB

    Also because Dems have feigned the support of factory workers.

    Trump doesnt defend them. They just see themselves in him most probably, big mouth, racist etc.

    Higher educated doesn't mean automatically more intelligent, but its a fact that they tend to nuance more, look at different perspectives, are less racist (or can hide it better).

    college educated people being less racist is a myth 100%

    I remember in one of my undergrad law classes, a bunch of kids who wanted to go law school and become lawyers, during the kavanuagh hearings, deadass talking about "he couldn't have done it, she's way too ugly for a guy like him to rape"

    they are just as racist, misogynists, sexist etc as the rest of the population, just, as you said, better able to hide it and play nice.

    I think it's more the other way around

    it's both but someone has to budge and try to find common ground

    they think we are a bunch of betas

    a lot of libs think they are racist meatheads

    college educated people being less racist is a myth 100%

    Can you link me a study proving that?

    It's weird cause I've only seen studies saying the opposite.

    Genuinely just want to educate myself here.

    studies will say that they are less racist, but in practice i don't believe it. racism manifests itself in many different ways

    instead of meeting working class people head on and forming a dialogue, u dismiss them as “stupid” and wonder why they keep voting for republicans

    I’m working class and so is my entire family

    Because they aren’t educated. Harsh but true reality, and we have to be honest about it.

    The correlation between being educated and voting Trump is patent.

    Edit: white and uneducated is the key mix of a Trump voter

    If we’re generalizing like this, it’s a far more accurate generalization that liberals tend to be privileged college kids who live in a bubble and have never had to pay taxes or bills in their life

    A lot of generalisations have kernes of truth to be fair.

    this is such a dumb generalization that doesn't even take into account unionized workers. you're taking an anecdote of some laborers you know and applying it to the whole industry.

    the majority of manual laborers actually probably vote Democrat, especially in inner cities.

    Yup

    The biggest variable of if blue worker jobs vote dem or republican is based on geography

    The urban vs rural/suburban split is the biggest factor in US politics

    did you ever step back and realize why construction workers are "dumb"?

    the majority of manual laborers didn't wake up one day and decide to do backbreaking work with awful hours for what they're doing for the fun of it. they don't have the privilege or luxury to have a political science education, or lecture themselves on the labor theory of value, or whatever.

    when a candidate like Trump or Bernie Sanders comes in and promises them the things they need to put food on the table for their families or even have a passing thought about their children's futures, they'll believe them even if it's to their detriment ultimately.

    folk point fingers at the working class who's doing their best to survive when you should be pointing them at the elite that brainwashes them to believing such dumb s***.

    I'm not going to get into the Hispanics voting for Trump s***, there's a ton of factors in that and it's 10:00am.

    Could you go into why Hispanics voted for Trump? Or could you give me sources as to why they voted for him?

    I'm kinda interested in that..

    Thanks

    Uneducated. They fall in line with right wing values of "Hard work makes you a Godly man yessir"
