Another string where a few people basicallyl equate those that think differently than themselves as less intelligent.
A very dangerous way to live one's life.
"smarter ones that saw the light"
"ignorance on the right"
Yikes.
I do think more "young" people, that is university level people tend to lean left. They get that from the University experience, their professors and such. Many continue to be left the rest of their lives, but a good chunk of those start to drift right in my estimation as they get a little older. I know I did.
The university left seems to be very much about fighting the establishment (government, the US, big companies), something that often changes quite quickly once they realize they will likely need a job with a government body or a big company.
Hope I didn't offend.
