A friend for 40+ years posted this on Facebook "I have always thought I was the beneficiary of an excellent education because my parents sent me to private Catholic schools. I thought we were taught well in the areas of research, critical thinking and logic. I am disheartened by the sheer number of people who shared my educational background who boarded and rode the Trump train, who bought into the lies around the election, who hold Rush Limbaugh up as a role model, who attempt to justify the insurrection and who spread conspiracy theories such as those espoused by QAnon. I now wonder if the schools that I’ve always considered to be of a higher standard were either just average or just elitist?" I want to respond, not to start a fight or WW3 but everything that I start to writer gets my blood boiling. Yes, I know I could ignore it, delete her or snooze her BUT Q tells us we need to help educate and I am at a loss. So, I thought I would reach out to my fellow frens and get some help and ideas. Anyone?

I would pass. Sounds like this person already feels they are far superior to everyone else because of their " edumacation ". Going to any school doesn't always mean ur more " educated " across the board.
While they may know about " business, art, or w.e. their major " it can still mean they're dumb in all other subjects. Actually that is often the case in my experience.
Ego comes into play too. They aren't going to be able to take advice from you unless you can prove " Yours is bigger ". I can't tell u how many people I interact with that have plaques on their walls, but when it comes to many subjects ( health, politics, etc ) they are as dumb as a 3rd grader.
Also u cannot force the red pill. It sounds like this will need the other method.
