Work at a university; try telling that to the academics. Some of them are phenomenally simple. They may be convinced of intellectual superiority because they're a world expert in frog genders, but they struggle to solve simple problems or absorb reasoning without having it dumbed down.

A university is like a daycare for those adults. And the trantrums and toy throwing they have with each other, oh my god. Daily I wonder how some of these people would survive if they ever had to leave school.

    Academia is a good walled garden for those hyper specialized researchers. They progress research and the institution acts as a patron and sanctuary from the world. Perhaps we should reward continued general education though
