Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our cultural and political life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that ‘my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.’
anthropophagous: I don’t really think that this is anti-intellectualism as a blanket thing, so much as valuation of certain kinds of knowledge over others / the idea that intellectuals are somehow disengaged from the world / anti-intellectualism as a shroud for other kinds of bigotry and groups you would like to marginalize or legitimize.
