    Further education is very heavily linked with approval for left-wing policies. There’s some big correlation between learning stuff about the world and being politically left-wing. When that information floods to an otherwise very sheltered group, I guess you’re likely to see reactions.

      This is not entirely true

      More education correlates higher with voting Democrat but once you start taking into account anti-war sentiment, progressive economic policies, etc.

      Education starts having an inverse relationship with support for the aforementioned

      I’m lazy but there’s tons of pills on Americans to support this if you look them up

        I would be interested to see papers. Because when googling I can only find studies that conclude somewhere between a mixed and significant link between education and supporting left-wing policies.
