CEO Legend Has a Brutal Message for Ivy League Grads
Added:the person down the street who knows how to drill for oil and gas who's moved to Texas has a more valuable profession.
>> Nate Silver, who's a statistician, uh who we've shown on the show before, he put this up. I thought this was rather interesting. If you want to see where some of the frustration by these crazy lefties are coming. Uh he wrote, "Income and education are usually positive positively correlated, but sometimes the relationship breaks down. What's the most democratic vote gro Sorry, what is the most democratic voting group in America? People with postgraduate degrees but lower to middle incomes."
You get that? So, these people who have these very fancy degrees often from Ivy League schools, and they get degrees in lesbian underwater basket weaving and all of these things, suddenly they get out into the real world, they have all this debt, they've been taught nothing or the wrong things, they don't know how to think, they don't know how to do anything, they can't get a good job, and now they are pissed. Next thing you know, you're hanging out with a jihadist. Uh take a look at this. It's a chart uh showing income and education correlated to Democrat voting. So, you can see that 70% of postgraduates are making 30 to who are making 30 to 60,000, which obviously is not much, are voting Democrats. So, now let's go a little further on this. Uh Palantir CEO Alex Karp, I love showing you videos of this guy. He just gets it. Here he explains the conundrum that these larping socialists, larping overeducated socialists who come from privilege, which is why they were able to go to those fancy schools and study these ridiculous things, why they are so radicalized right now, because their uh degrees are useless.
>> And I think the average, you know, Ivy League grad voting for this mayor is highly annoyed that their education is not that valuable, and the person down the street who knows how to drill for oil and gas who's moved to Texas has a more valuable profession. And I think that annoys the out of these people.
>> I think that's right. Sometimes you don't have to overthink everything.
Imagine if you're someone who went to all these fancy schools and you got your doctorate and all of this stuff, then you get out into the real world and you can't really get a job cuz it doesn't really do much and you don't really have great skills and we know that most kids in schools are learning all these awful things and and I literally at this point would not hire a college graduate. My preference would be to hire college dropouts and I've got a few of them here or people who didn't go to college at all. That would be just fine. If you are a hard worker and you're dedicated and you seem like a decent human, I might give you a job. I got a couple companies. Feel free to send us an email. We're doing all sorts of things.
Um, but you could see how not only would they become embittered about their lives, then they would look down the street and here he uses the example of a guy who knows how to drill and then is suddenly making six figures. But you could look at almost anyone. Anyone that has some actual skill, whether it is doing electric work or literally the ability to build a house or anything else. They'd suddenly be like, "But I'm so much better and smarter than those people. I'm a coastal elite and they're not They're What? How do they have a job and I don't?" Well, it's because the left sold everybody all of the wrong ideas for decades.
