The parent post was actually about anti-intellectualism, which is a specific distaste and disrespect for the intelligencia.
Someone bragging about having a PhD is very strong evidence that they dont hate the intelligencia
That isn't what they said. They said that the PhD, by itself, isn't sufficient evidence of intellectualism.
It's a perfectly natural reaction to have to anyone who, like the commenter being responded to, hold up their PhD as a defense of their intellectual prowess.
