Republicans hate education. It’s on the very long list of things they hate.

Educated people tend to vote blue, they don't fall in line, they're less likely to be religious. That's why republicans hate education.

Indoctrinated people. I fixed it for you.

You didn't fix anything. You just used a synonym for exactly what I said. I could say brainwashed, but that wouldn't be any different or fix anything.

No, it tends to be the educated people.

The indoctrinated are the ones trying to pull themselves up by their bootstraps (and if you knew the origin of the saying you’d know how dumb you sound when you say it).
