Something I've been seeing for many years too

Not just the USA either.. seems to be running rampant globally. Maybe I'm anomalous on this, but I think the anti-intellectuals deserve whatever fate awaits them.. they get sorted out appropriately in the end. And of course, as social outcasts, many of us have extra reason to not care about the fates of such people. We should be able to make our own way in the world without being joined at the hip to people who just hate us anyway. As long as they don't make my planet uninhabitable and leave me and mine alone in whatever part of the world I end up in, it's all good. Otherwise I'd have to take steps to precipitate some final solutions.
