I disagree. I read the OP's answer as, "The more education you have, the more you're prepared to accept the possibility that you're wrong." This leads to a greater acceptance of viewpoints (or at least the right to hold them) which you don't necessarily agree with, which is basically liberalism in a nutshell.
- Sir_Substance 10y ago>"The more education you have, the more you're prepared to accept the possibility that you're wrong." I've never met or seen anyone who self-identifies with a specific political label who was willing to accept they might be wrong. That includes liberals. To be honest, the inability to consider alternative viewpoints is an attribute I associate strongly with liberals in particular.

- vlehto 10y agoThere are lots of people who support "liberalist" policies but don't accept opposing views. For example animal rights activists.
