“Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that ‘my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.’”
As I tell anyone willing to listen and not issue a restraining order: the next big war/battle will not be liberal vs conservative, the religious vs non-religious or "good" vs "evil." It will be the stupid vs. the greedy.
The question for those who don't count them among either is: who will they side with?
