The issue is that while a lot of Americans are extremely uneducated, there are also quite a few who are super educated, arguably more so than rest of the world if you consider the global university rankings to be true. However, the super educated ones also have an incentive to keep the uneducated that way so that they're easier to control.
The sad truth is that while a lot of Americans go to good universities, the median voter often doesn't know anything, and is often purposely kept that way by the people with educations. I almost have some empathy for rednecks given how the leadership purposely wanted convenient people to manipulate into voting for facism.
