Of course academics are hostile to academic achievement. In an increasingly competitive world (more people) I suspect many of the current academic elites would struggle to out-compete. And fear of the educated working class? Is there any greater fear for academic elites? As commented elsewhere it seems like pulling up the ladder.

Better to keep the majority ill-educated so that they cannot rise up and overthrow the elite. Wait, haven’t we seen that before?
