I am not a fan of these posts personally. And I say that as a left leaning person with a Masters Degree. I find them to be:
- Potentially divisive
- Ammunition for those wanting to dismiss alternative viewpoints without engaging with them
- A correlative relationship that too many people jump on as a causational relationship
This is a multi-variable relationship where many variables are here ignored, such as level of urbanisation, educational qualification requirements for large state employers, access to higher education, etc.
Too many left leaning folk will look at this and think "see, people who failed in school vote Republican" and there is simply not the available data here to draw that conclusion
