    They are talking about education, not intelligence. Children of couples with higher education will usually have a better education too.

      That wasn’t clear from their comment. The link for Idiocracy didn’t help that since that movie focuses on eugenics.

      For education, sure, but while the data shows more educated voters voted for Harris, it isn’t nearly as big of a gap as it should be. Slightly over 2/5ths of college educated voters voted for Trump, likewise slightly over 2/5ths of uneducated voters voted for Harris. The media likes to hype that divide along with all the others, but that’s a shit ton of people on both sides.
