Your assertion that the poorly-educated/working-class don't care about integrity is incredibly condescending and ignorant.

Explain Deflategate and the OJ trial reactions. I also grew up with them. It's not condescending, it's been observational. I didn't claim it's universal or it's like that for everything in their lives, but if one of their horses cheats a bit, gets away with something, it's not the end of the world.

The loudest and most attention-grabbing voices are generally the least thoughtful. The reasonable voices tend to go unnoticed.

I'll grant you that's true in the media --but when I was in those circles, i.e. poor, it wasn't just the loudest. Normal people would have similar reactions. I think there is a bit of, "hey, we're owed one, it's not dignified, but if that's what it took, so be it."
