Does the impact of education on being a none look different based on age?
It clearly does.
For Boomers - more education leads to a higher rate of nones.
For Millennials - it's the exact opposite. The more highly educated are much *less* likely to be nones.
If Elon wants less academics on Twitter he should charge $8 to use the phrase “the intersections of”
but friends, think about all the people who never wanted to be #onhere in the first place, and how relieved they must feel knowing that they don't have to anymore. That's something, at least

Can someone explain to me why you would frame this as an either/or? Seriously, this is absurd. Neither of these things preclude the other. I don't know if it's a failure of political imagination, media imagination or both, but it's exhausting. npr.org/2022/06/17/110492054…
