Elite 1

"Woke" culture values are not main-stream Americans' values, though too many have swallowed the Kool-Aid. How could it happen that so many Americans have been convinced to agree that men can become women (and vice versa), that America is irredeemably evil, that parents must submit to school boards--and so much more? 

What could be driving this "destructive radicalism?" The team at a famous polling company (Rasmussen) noticed that their surveys explain just how the new radicalism spread.

In their regular surveys, "Out of every 1,000 or so respondents, there would always be three or four who were far more radical than everyone else." On further analysis, they discovered the commonalities among these people:

  • they have graduate degrees (not just studies)
  • their family incomes are above $150K
  • they live in large cities
They are the "unique elite 1%." Their opinions are quite different from those of the rest of us.
