GOP wants a paralyzingly stupid populace of plebs who lack the awareness to realize how they're actually being completely fucked over by the people whom they've been (easily) convinced are their saviors. add to this the fact that the fascists have spent decades demonizing experts in every field as "woke," "fraud," "fake news," whatever--because expert opinion so often contradicts the party dogma.
