Why the hate for wisdom?

[Louisabell]

These are American conservative phenomena. 'Freedom', 'Free speech' coupled with 'individual'. Not to mention the concept of 'divine right'.

This combination does not exist elsewhere in the world. They dont even exist in England, where many Americans see their roots. Or in Germany. Or China. Japan. South America. Mediterranean. Eastern Europe. Nowhere.

This combination of concepts belongs to American conservative segments. It combines elements of religion with their personal ideology, then used as justification for various kinds of 'freedoms' in their positions toward the society.

Sure, except here is a popular leftist liberal (host on agressive progressives and huge supporter for Bernie Sanders) defending the value of free speech in America:



Defending Alex Jones no less! Because maybe he remembers that freedom of speech was first used against the theocracy, bringing in progressive values into the society some which started in America and spread out throughout the world

Why would you ever think people against zoot suits are for freedom of speech?!? In the 50's freedom of speech was a liberal value.

Also the majority of Americans want universal healthcare, they are obviously under corporate capture in their politics and media and I think it's a little unfair to bash their culture as though that is who they are.
