The explanation for how leftists take over formerly elite professions is that they set the standards too high. Seriously. Excessively high standards only select for cheaters, not talent, so quality drops and leftists fill up the institution. Blue pill conservatives who can't figure this out do the worst thing possible, which is to further increase standards and aid the left in its takeover. Law, medicine, and Ivy League professors were swamped by this phenomenon.
Conservatives have to learn when to reject elitism. They have to learn when to strategically use economic leftism. They have to learn how to dumb things down the right way, and not fall for the way the left does it, which is either deliberately botched or is a form of black propaganda designed to discredit the concept.

Perhaps the standards ARE too high. Perhaps we need 2nd and 3rd class BARGAIN healthcare???

I worked as a Paramedic during Bush II and had a couple of trannies. This was years before all this crap took place and paramedics were all Conservative despite living in a very liberal area. Trannies always caused problems and the parameds would just be short with them, not kiss their ass and the shehes would get upset.

Or just lynched in minecraft.
