This is what raw reactionary anti-intellectualism looks like. https://twitter.com/johnpauldickson/status/1278997229068406789">https://twitter.com/johnpauld...

Note what he doesn& #39;t actually tell you is that in the period fo time he was talking about. Only an extremely select, tiny percentage of the population was actually a "student" and literacy rates were, if I remember correctly, in the single digit percentages.

Also all education was controlled by the church and any thought not approved of by the church was strictly suppressed.

Oh my God I just found out that this is one of those "historical resurrection" guys.

To his credit he seems to have a good position on Black Lives Matter but he definitely has "Christian Biblical Scholar" syndrome.

He literally claimed that education only happened because of the church in there, and it& #39;s like...yeah, sure dude, they took control of education entirely and nobody could really do education or academics independent of them, so you TOTALLY gotta credit them for education. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙄" title="Gesicht mit rollenden Augen" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit rollenden Augen">
