UK general election 2019 - corbinned

[Sidney]

Right-wing politics in general is very anti-intellectual

The Tory media has sneered at education and intellectualism for decades

Right-wing politics is a bankrupt idea and has no ideas, other than making politics about hatred of the other and 1930s style propaganda

Nobody on this forum was able to come up with one legitimate reason for voting Tory

I’ve been saying this stuff for years and keep being proved correct

Ironically, English football has been one of the few areas of English society that has become a bit more enlightened since 2016

There is, in English football, like in English society as a whole, a deep seated anti-intellectualism, which manifests itself in several ways - in their approach to tactics, in their lack of innovation as to how the game should be played and coached, in thinking they’re better than they are and treating opponents lightly, in their approach to physical preparation before the tournament, in the players’ egotism, in their rush to make excuses, in the lack of leadership from both players and management, in the suffocating media goldfish bowl that surrounds the team.
