Education, intelligence, and empathy all go hand in hand. This is why conservative areas intentionally cut school funding and consolidate the money into conservative institutions.
if you’re enough of a sucker to go ahead and swallow the “empathy is weakness” propaganda, then you have no problem voting against your own best interests, just because it will hurt people you were told you’re supposed to hate
I kinda disagree that education correlates with empathy. Plenty of people in very high places of the defense industry have advanced STEM degrees. Most people working in the American government have degrees from highly regarded universities. All the people you can name that are doing sketchy shit right now went to an Ivy League school.
Idk, maybe most people become more empathetic with education, but it’s definitely not a law of nature that education will absolutely make you more empathetic.
