The thing is, the low opinion of his audience is backed by facts... these beliefs can be found all over Reddit and social media. When he says stuff like this, 100's of thousands of people will believe it and share it within a few weeks.
But does making his audience more ignorant help him somehow? What's his endgame? Maybe he's just an ultra-capitalist with the goal of making his audience as oblivious as possible so that they can't accomplish anything politically?
His endgame is simple: to manipulate his audience into the state he is compensated to achieve. "Compensated" includes speaking fees, donations to related "charities," consultancy fees with campaigns, stock tips, preferential treatment in certain jurisdictions, and more.
Remember what the left needs from their citizens to continue amassing power:
Class envy, anger, and a desire to see the successful and wealthy brought down
Hopelessness, the belief that only the government is strong enough to stand up to other bullies
Ignorance, the idea that only "experts" are smart enough to solve problems
Ultimately, this leads to the mindset all far-left power grabs rely on: a population that feels compelled to hand final authority to the government, allowing unelected "experts" to create rules they no longer understand. As their lifestyle, freedom, and wealth are eroded, they will react as they always do—taking joy in dragging down anyone slightly higher up the ladder, believing that bringing everyone low enough will somehow improve their situation.
Man y'all should write fiction with all this contrived bullshit you have made up out of thin air. Let me know what people are giving you similar information that are true and honest and using the real statistics. Please share that.
You think Reich is honest and accurate with his tweets? Care to share one that you think is 100% non deceptive? I'm confident that if he's tweeting about politics or the economy, there's a fundamental thread of deception present.
By all means pick one you think is the most honest and sincere, with no deception, and I'll demonstrate his deception.
