Nerdy things like...reading.

How the hell did the US ever become a global hegemony if attitudes like this are a non-isolated incident? I've dealt with this attitude before.

My pet theory is that anti-intellectualism in the US wasn't really pushed until the 60s onwards, therefore its effects have most been felt after US global hegemony.
