3 lower-rung, uneducated women at work told me they're undecided today. I was shocked.
We're in education but they're the un-trained staff.

I said, "You would honestly consider giving fRump the nuclear codes and the supreme court?"

They had no idea what those 2 things were or why they should care.

Did you shower after being near them?

After some "I know how awful it is to be around those people" replies a dissenter appears.

21. In this case , they are all of the above.

But fRump is winning with the uneducated and HRD is winning with the educated, so I was following suit.

Followed the script in other words.

11. Unskilled: Working hourly with no training, no college, no proof of any expertise: A pulse.

I happen to know that none of them did anything past HS, and don't know how well they did in HS, either.

They're working at the lower end of the food chain, for sure.

In reality likely much more successful at life then you will ever be.

24. Oh those dullards with a pulse.

In college and law school the way I made money was in an industrial laundry. Two of your pulsed workers ran the washing machines. They slung one ton slings of clothes, wet and dry, mixed dye for mops, kept eight washers working for their ten hour shift...and literally saved my dumb ass life twice when I was doing stupid shit.

They made a very good wage. These guys, both had pulses as far as I can tell, had the admiration of the entire plant. Both lwft the Mississippi Delta after about the tenth grade.

It made an impression on me. All work has dignity, except for those with their nose in the air.

Or the typical DUmp stoner.

28. OK. Listen. These 3 particular women are in their 50's. This is the only work they'll ever do. They'

ve ever done. They're just not curious, they're uninformed, and they prefer it that way. I was not trying to insult anyone, including them. They have no ambition and know nothing outside their town or their families. They live in small, insulated worlds. They work very hard in a difficult situation for very little money, no opportunity to move up, no pension, no healthcare, no benefits.

I was illustrating a Trump voter: No one here who wades through deep, complex, historic ideas and practices.

If you decide to be insulted, have fun. But I was talking about 3, count them, 3 women. That's it.

If you want to count yourself among them, that's your business.

When the typical democrat voter only can say "gimme".

15. It didn't take much to convince them that he's a sociopath

and the supreme court could remove all social welfare programs for decades.

Better not to get into the personality trap. They love the kardashians and big brother and sruvivor, et al.

A conversion!!

26. There is a lot of smug in this thread..."lower rung" and "gently explain" are just two examples.

It can be difficult, but I have found it very rewarding to presume everyone I meet to be of fine and able mental capabilities. It seems to me that when one looks down on others, it oozes out through their vocabularies and tones.

I love how they equate college degrees with intelligence. I know some really smart folks who've never stepped foot on a college campus. Yeah, they may not know some really vague bullshit you can bring up, but they can solve problems they've never seen because they can think through it.

Interesting how that works. Myself, I don't have a college degree, but I figured out how to make a pretty damn good living. I do a job that requires a bachelors degree, yet I don't have one. I do have real life experience, though.

Good point.  Know and associate with a lot of people without college degrees.  And don't ever judge a person based on that, it is the content of one's character and their actions. Experience is often far better than the stuff you learn in class.

I look at the snowflakes and cry babies on many college campuses today and with the ecxeption of people studying to become doctors,  nurses, or engineers seriously question the intellectual value of a college degree today.

I'm allowed to take part in the hiring process.  I have always chosen people that had on the job experience over college education.  They are more valuable and not snobs.

Same experience here. My college was a complete waste of 4 years (well, except for the partys maybe). I ended up in a completely unrelated field on top of it all. I'm far from what I would consider "well off", but God sure has been good to us and it isn't a result of a degree.
My kids are destined for Tech school if I have any say in it and so far, they agree with me. I'd do the same if I had it to do all over again... I might actually get something useful out of it.
I work in the tech field and I've only ever hired those unwashed "uneducated" types. It's all about attitude and aptitude; education comes in dead last as a qualifier, and NONE of them smell like Patchouli oil.
Hell, one of the smartest and most wise individuals I ever knew only went to school to the second grade... which was quite common for her generation. She couldn't do calculus, but directed a small army of child welfare case workers for decades... knew every constable, sheriff, judge and lawyer within a 100 mile radius on a first-name basis and was highly respected by all... to a point where judges would implement whatever recommendations she gave them without hesitation. So yea, not quite "low information voter" types.

Given the way many Libs/Progs have been portraying Trump voters as knuckle-dragging ignorami, it had to have been a bit of a shock to have that stereotype called out that way. I wonder if DU-folks' reaction would have been different had the "uneducated" undecideds been Trumplings.

A that is also true: Many years ago I was the main interviewer for a technician position. Of the top two candidates, one had a degree while the other had worked as a tech repairing TVs and VCRs. I preferred the repair tech, because that meant he was flexible and able to learn quickly. My mangler chose the guy with the degree. A couple of weeks after the degreed guy started another tech flipped out and got canned, so we quickly hired the TV repair tech as well. The guy with the degree was a slow learner,and lacked initiative; the repair shop guy was great. It's a sample of two, yada, yada, yada, but that diploma is just a piece of paper unless the man or woman who earned it can figure out how to use what they learned and has the determination to do so.

[VelvetElvis]

lindysalsagal's attitude toward those "lower-rung, uneducated women" is still far more respectful of them than Her Heinous, who would call them deplorable and unredeemable and not think twice.

After all, lindysalsagal still thinks "in their capacity (as sub-humans beneath the estimable lindysalsagal, of course) they can be "just fine".
Just so long as they know their place, doncha know

[SVPete]

A similarly good point. To paraphrase a radio host who had/has Libs & Progs foaming at the mouth with rage at the mention of her name, an A-Hole with an education is an educated A-Hole, possibly equipped to be a worse A-Hole than they would have been without that college diploma. Kind of like "lindysalsagal", to be blunt.

Is she a "gal" named Lindy, who likes salsa music/dancing? Or a gal who likes dancing generally, from the Lindy to Salsa?

The manglement there wasn't awful, just distracted by paper credentials. This was back when WJC was enjoying under-desk stimulation, two recessions and several few jobs ago.
