The most obvious answer to the paradox of 'high IQ liberals' is that Universities, and even High Schools, have become
infested with liberals/Marxists who miseducate their students. Though certainly true, the psychologicalroots of the mental disorder known as 'liberalism' run much deeper than these superficial intellectual
causes.

During the formative years, children are praised for parroting
back their ABC’s and 123’s. At an early age, the child’s delicate mind is already being conditioned to equate
obedient regurgitation with praise, love, and self worth.
The little scholar is proud of himself.
The conditioned Pavlovian connection between regurgitation and praise is made at an early age.
The brightest young learners are singled out to receive
the most praise. Proud parents enthusiastically reinforce the
praise of the teacher, showering the impressionable child with
hugs and kisses. The inflation of the intelligent child’s
ego, and the reflexive association of regurgitation with rewards, (including parental love!)
are taking root.
Parents naturally praise good grades. The child thus associates regurgitation with parental love.
With subjects such as reading, writing, and math, the system of obedient regurgitation
and praise is a necessary and effective model of teaching. That’s because the ‘3 R’s’ are what they
are. They cannot be distorted.
Repitition & praise is the only way to teach 'The 3 R's"
But with subjects such as History, Philosophy, Economics, Current Events, Political Science, and ‘Theoretical
Science’, the regurgitation / reward model leaves the student vulnerable to manipulation and erroneous information.
They may be smart, but their critical minds are still not developed.
The ego-gratification associated with the regurgitation & praise model is reinforced
throughout Middle and High School. It is during this time that the, ‘gifted & talented’ students are separated
out from their ‘inferiors’ and taught to repeat such rubbish as:
America’s Constitution is outdated.
Karl Marx was a great philosopher.
The Civil War was about slavery.
FDR’s New Deal saved America.
Germany started 2 World Wars.
6 Million Jews were gassed in ‘The Holocaust’.
Picasso was the greatest artist.
Einstein was the smartest man who ever walked the face
of the Earth.
Senator Joe McCarthy was evil.
Martin Luther King was a Saint.
Capitalism
is about greed.
Socialism
is about charity.
Men and women
are the same.
There is no such thing as race.
Man ‘evolved’ from pond scum.
Global Warming is a proven fact.
There are no government conspiracies.
Homosexuality is normal.
Guns
and religion are evil.
Note: Many 'conservatives' also hold some of theseviews. We'll address them in another article.
The next big ‘doggie-treat’ for the young ‘straight A’ parrot, comes when she is accepted to
a ‘prestigious’ University. Now she knows that she is really smart!
College Acceptance!
At college, the star student continues (to his benefit, and to his credit)
to regurgitate the complex material of challenging subjects such as physics, engineering, statistics, calculus etc. However,
he may also obediently regurgitate the Marxist crap contained in other subjects (electives). Because
he has never had cause to question the undeniable veracity of
the math and science content presented to him, why would he
question what any other textbook or teacher tells him?
Gullible college students swallow the poison spewed forth by Marxist professors.
By now, the bright
young scholar has been so psychologically conditioned that he is incapable of distinguishing
between the fact-based regurgitation of the objective courses (math, applied science, etc.), and thepropaganda-based regurgitation of the subjective courses (electives, humanities,
theoretical science etc). His ego is literally addicted to the praise/good grades of
whatever godlike Marxist Professor is instructing him. The hard-earned (and expensive!) diploma represents the
ultimate doggie treat and confirmation, in his mind, that he knows it all.
"This degree means I'm smarter than you!"

Taught to believe that ‘educated’ people read The New York Times, attend Modern Art exhibits,
and watch Bill Moyers and Charlie Rose on PBS, the trendy post-Graduate libtard’s belief system is further reinforced
by the Marxist Media culture.
Otherwise intelligent liberals worship their morning newspapers.
Bill Moyers is a psuedo intellectual sophist propagandist.
.

When
finally challenged on his belief system, the ‘educated’ libtard’s
entire self-worth
is suddenly threatened. Telling him for example that Global
Warming is a bunch of Marxist hooey is the equivalent, in his
reactive mind, of saying that 2 + 2 is not 4! Because his
bloated ego simply cannot bear the discomfort of being out-of-sync
with the 'in crowd', the miseducated libtard will despise you,
and insult you. His mental disorder runs deeeeep!
Condescending, arrogant, and smug in his false education and self worth.
Should
you press the issue with facts and
hard data, watch the oh-so 'tolerant' and 'open-minded' libtard
really come unglued! He will verbally attack you in a personal
way, accuse you, vilify you, privately wish death upon you, and
ultimately, run away from you.
"Nazi! Nazi! Nazi!"
The ‘educated’ libtard is merely an advanced Pavlovian
show dog. Through years of studious regurgitation
and positive reinforcement, he may have learned to design
bridges, repair mangled bodies, program software, build companies
from scratch, or design rockets. But he has never been taught the lesson of humility! He knows not
how to philosophize – to think his own thoughts – to understand the world - to understand the inner nature
of man - to be his own man. And his tragic 'hard wired' arrogance (insecurity) will prevent him from ever trying
to.
The most easily conditioned breed of 'dog' is the newspaper-reading 'educated' libtard.
