About those liberal elitists looking down at those with no formal education...
EDITOR'S NOTE: Donald Trump got elected partly by duping working class voters into believing that the Democrats are nothing but a bunch of stuck up, liberal, college-educated elitists who look down on them. This Daily Kos post does an outstanding job of exposing that Trump con. Be warned: Matt Z drops f-bombs and uses other impolite terms. But he's angry and passionate and he sees through the Trump-MAGA hustle that was carefully crafted to trick working people like him vote against their economic interests. So far, the post has notched a whopping 824 recommendations and 719 comments.

I’ve put these thoughts separately into a few comments but it might make an okay diary.
I happen to know the framing in the diary title is pure bullshit. For a fact.
I am white.
I am male.
I am Gen X.
And I BARELY graduated high school. I needed a tutor to help me finish months after my class graduated. I am a shitty speller. I am terrible at math. I check off ALL the same boxes as the poor downtrodden jus’ folk you all are giving undue cover for.
