Best believe if we were a socialist country, the academics would be theorizing and writing essays about capitalism. It’s about going against the status quo because they need to create their own value

I think it’s pure jealousy because they can’t produce…..those who can’t do, teach

Thomas Sowell said it best: "The most fundamental fact about the ideas of the political left is that they do not work. Therefore we should not be surprised to find the left concentrated in institutions where ideas do not have to work in order to survive." Did he not?

Crixus The Undefeated :
One huge reason that many people are resentful of Capitalism, is because their own ideas, intellect, labor, abilities, and skills aren’t as valuable as they’d like them to be and they’re incapable of profiting off of them to the degree that they believe they should be able to. Many of these people believe they are superior and more self righteous than others, while also being jealous and envious of others.

Inside every progressive is a totalitarian screaming to get out.

Intellectual and Leftist are self-cancelling. You can’t be a leftist and be intellectual.

EX :
Actually smart people criticize parts of capitalism/socialism that are worth criticizing without ulterior motives. Anyone who pretends either is perfect is not smart. Somewhere in the middle with democratic socialism usually gives best results. Nordic countries for example

Teaching is for people who can’t survive in a real, competitive world.

Capitalism rewards exploitation, socialism rewards innovation and hard work, that is one of the core principles.

At the most simplified level, those in academia have to vote liberal, simply to stay funded.

The reason that highly educated people are left leaning is because they are highly educated and therefore more likely to know proper solutions to certain problems.

Socialism is the ideology of Satan. Just like Satan wishes he was god, socialists wish they were as rich and influential as capitalists.

Socialism tends to root out and stamp out intellectuals pretty quickly.

"It wasn’t real socialism" and "it wasn’t implemented correctly" should be borrowed by engineers. "It wasn’t the real product, just a post-beta." "It wasn’t implemented correctly, don’t judge the engineer or the product by a bad implementation."
