Before I retired I supervised "experts", many of them with PhDs, and in general they were educated too narrowly, lacked curiosity about issues impacting their work, and would get upset when questioned about their assumptions in areas other than their field of expertise. One good example of garbage produced by "experts" is the National Climate Assessment, those documents are so bad the supervising authors ought to be fired. And if there's any doubt about the lack of wisdom and common sense of the American educated caste, all we need to do is notice how PhDs tend to vote left. Given Kamala Harris' total ineptitude and communist tendencies, those holding PhDs and voting for her are evidently unfit to state their opinion on any subject at all.
"...feels ostracized and unseen by the social and economic elite who have created complex, technocratic governing regimes and modes of production that fail to respond to the needs and interests of those with less education and different value prioritizations."
Fail to respond?
Howsabout ignore, or frequently worse, denigrate maybe?
That, to me, seems more the case these last eighteen years than any evident failure to respond.
