I don't seem to be able to locate the one, two, and three in question so I can't address your query.

Somehow I lost them on the edit screen. Maybe when I cutting and pasting text.

1 - Resentment or disparaging the "elite" because they are "elite" and/or dispargaging the highly educated because they are highly educated.

2 - A reaction against "the elite" because they as a whole have differing opinions about certain important issues than the majority of Americans.

3 - The same sort of reaction based on a false notion of strongly differing opinions.

The 1st of the 3 is most like the "self destructive culture that eschews 'acting white'". The 3rd is simply a misunderstanding. But what's your take on the 2nd?

Tim

there's a part of our society that seems to glorify anti-intellectualism. The dittohead is the personification of anti-intellectualism.



Trolling again?
