lick them boots.

Ah yes. "The poor". Know all about them do you?

Yes cause a spoiled brat that constantly relied on their parents' money growing up is sure to be shrewd and technical.

the poor tend to be less educated

Education being free or not depends on the specific government and its policies of a sovereign country. Education may not be free in your country, in which case yes poor people have less access if they have less money to afford it.

You generalizing your experience in your country to the entire world, though, speaks to your bias and lack of education, which is quite ironic. It also speaks to your willingness to accept the status quo rather than try to undermine it and fight for something better for everyone.

If you're on Lemmy, you're likely not rich, and so you're acting against your own interest. We as a proletariat could achieve so much if we were willing to put aside our differences, aim towards the removal of rich twats from power, and install systems and policies that benefit us, not them.

Instead, you're propagating a lie with undertones that only rich people have the curiosity to learn about the world around them - as if they were born with that capability while the rest of us weren't - all while failing to recognize that immediate needs have to be met first before people think about pursuing higher goals.

Have a down vote.

I’m poor as shit and I think I’m pretty damn smart.

My ex was a trust fund baby and dumb as rocks. I did his college capstone for him.

That's a rather large leap in logic. And "the poor" wasn't even mentioned, so your opinion just comes off as inflammatory

But I guess opinions are like kittens, people just give 'em away
