Katie Couric commentary: "The socio-economic disparities are significant, and class resentment is widespread. Anti-intellectualism and elitism are driving many of these anti-establishment individuals — who are largely Trump voters — so I think that is a huge problem we have to address."
I pondered over the 'lecture'.
To be honest, I haven't really thought much about Couric since the late 1990s.
On the anti-intellectualism BS? What I'd generally say.....a whole lot of people have appeared since the 1990s....claiming to be intellectual, but apparently skipped about half of the classes, and seem to be hooked-up to some type of fake-intellectualism.
The other issue....it's bad enough on 'elitism' now....that you have to use a fake-elite index....assigning folks a score, and simply admitting that you 'mute' a fair amount of their commentary.
But then I come to the central theme....what the intellectuals need to do....to recapture the bulk of society. If your 'brand' or message doesn't work....you might want to start learning a new skill or trade.
