“There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that ‘my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.’ ”

― Isaac Asimov

Those starting these tirades (like Cruz) keep sending their kids to elite Us, but perpetuate anti intellectualism to their base. Keep 'em uneducated. Don’t let outside information inside of the bubble. Control the messages. Control the appropriate responses to the messages. Yep the rw industrial media complex has at it’s heart the mechanisms of a cult and with their ‘charismatic leader’ (to 30% of the population) the cultification of the GOP, and of the politicized evangelical movement is now complete.

Did you ever see the movie “Idiocracy”? It’s supposedly a satire. But it looks like the real destination.

They need to point out for us where there has ever been a ‘great society’ and a successful economy for it’s citizens where education is devalued and higher education defiled and avoided. Deluded fools.
