The joke is on them because a college degree is not and never has been a sign of intelligence. Anyone with a functional memory can sit in college classes learning and remembering things. Those that feel the need to advertise their college accomplishments are often the ones lacking the most and seeking to advertise things in attempt to feel more important than they are.
You could take a construction worker with a GED and someone with 8 years of college and often the construction worker would be more intelligent. There was a time when employers preferred someone with actual experience and knowledge of a job vs someone who sat in classrooms memorizing things.
I'm one of those that can understand how something works, figure it out, repair it or replace it, all without having to read books and pretend to know things. I know how to properly rebuild an engine but I'm not a mechanic. I know about 90% of everything involved in building a house, even correctly wiring it for plumbing and electricity but I'm not an electrician nor a plumber.
People with their college degrees believe they're smarter but that's rarely the case. Many of them don't even know or understand basic things in life. They find a way to earn a good paycheck and pay others to do everything they're not smart enough to learn to do themselves then just say they pay other people because they can.
If some sort of major apocalyptic event ever happened where cell phones no longer worked, power grid was gone, no more stores and restaurants, we would then see those that pretend to be intelligent on the internet be those begging for help because they were completely useless in life and society. I know it won't happen but if there ever were an apocalypse, I'd like it to be zombies although I know that's not going to happen.
I have a degree from Syracuse University and AIU and even I know I do not know an awful lot. Only a fool who went to college thinks he knows more than people who did not go about life. Thees people are stupid.
I think some people equate college degrees with intelligence. There is intelligence required though to learn everything to obtain a college degree though. I think it's mainly what people refer to as unhinged lefties that believe college degrees automatically make them more intelligent and it becomes amusing when they randomly add in their degrees to conversations entirely unrelated.
Anyone with a good college degree should be proud of their accomplishment but I guess leftist lunatics believe they have to advertise accomplishments when in reality most people don't care about someone else's accomplishments. I think some of them are just seeking attention and gratification for things they did. The sad part is that in many cases, it's parents that failed them by not allowing them to fail in life and realize that nobody cares if they went to college or not.
A lot of people are guilty of believing that everyone else cares but most people don't. These comments were from a post of a person advertising they had a PhD but still fail to recognize if someone is male or female when a PhD or any degree has nothing to do with the person assuming someone was a man based on their male avatar which would be the usual assumption.
The person corrected it saying they were female then the other person responded about still getting things wrong with having a PhD as if that had anything to do with their messages. My comment was targeted at everyone that believes they're automatically more intelligent than anyone without a degree but from what I've seen over the years, it really seems like it's mostly left leaning people that wants everyone to know their accomplishments while all the normal people simply use those accomplishments to have a better life without caring who knows about it.
