"Being educated" is not an indicator of being smart or intelligence as anyone can be taught just about anything. Moreover, whether knowledge is retained is unknown. Education may be an opportunity to learn, however.

Critical, logical thinking, questioning, effective problem solving skills, common sense with the ability to retain a good knowledge base and the willingness to challenge and expand one's knowledge are all things that allow one to be "smart" at some point, depending on the topic.

I worked with a lot of highly educated people, BS, MS, & PhD's. Many if not most of these went all in for the shots. In fact, many talked (bragged) about the fact that they took either the Pfizer or Moderna shots. I told a few not to take the shots but they did it anyway.

Since I live in a very impoverished section of the country, I also know a lot of trade people and retail merchants. They refused to take the shots and knew more about the dangers than the professionals I worked with. I also learned that MDs and nurses, in general, are not very smart. Many kept up with the booster shots and believed that masks actually work to stop viral spread.

The under educated class appears to be much smarter than trained professionals that should have know about cells, RNA, DNA, immunology, etc.

I told the "smart" professionals that we ignored most everything mankind has learned over the last 300 years about disease spread and how the human body works. Of course they disagreed with me.
