By jove, I think you've got it! These people are not "uneducated," they are just HAPPY with being blue collar workers and they do not view themselves as victims and therefore don't fall for the line of BS thrown to them by leftists. The "compassionate" left is all about convincing different groups that they are victims who are only capable of "receiving justice" through the power of government. Working class, middle Americans prove them wrong and they hate them for it!

Illegal immigrants don't complain and work hard. Uneducated conservatives will buy guns and threaten you.

If that is the case then they are looking down on their fellow Democrats since their biggest base is uneducated government dependants.
Your information is out of date. That has not been true since the early 2000's. The demographics of both parties have changed dramatically. Party affiliation among U.S. voters: 1992-2016 | Pew Research Center

Do you mean the ones who don't have degrees in such things as "African American Studies", Communications, "Arts", Humanities, Social work, etc.

Who said liberals look down on people without degrees? What are these statistics? All liberals don't think alike so I guess you are quoting some poll? Post the link.

I assume the term liberal doesn't mean all Democrats, since many Democrats are moderate.

I know this wasn't meant as a serious question, but I'll give you a serious answer anyway. I respect intellectual curiosity. I've met some without intellectual curiosity who have a degree, and some with it who do not. I myself sometimes have had it and sometimes have not. I do get frustrated with and tend to dismiss people who ask silly questions that are designed to elicit a specific response that simply validates what they already believed to be true.

We don't. Have fun playing with your strawman argument.

THIS is a good example of looking down on someone right here.

Notice how the right-winger, like so many others, zeroes in on African-American studies. That's code for "AA history is pathetic and isn't worth studying".

A well balanced, educated society requires people with all sorts of backgrounds. You'd be amazed by how many liberal arts majors I've worked with in the tech field who have transitioned from their degree to a successful career. As in most things, a variety of backgrounds leads to more interesting ideas.
