The "fake and gay" degrees also happen to be fields that often don't need formal credentials to break into (looking at you, "business"). Nobody wants to drive over a bridge built by a self-taught civil engineer, but no one has any compunction about shopping at a business owned by a self-taught businessman.
Would you get your audited financial statements completed by a self-taught accountant? Business is broad. Outside of Accounting and Finance, the field is a joke. HR Managers are basically just the Goon Squad for Critical Race Theorists.
Business degrees generally encompass management and economics, and soforth, and, at their best, serve as effective sorting mechanisms for populating corporate America (though they are doubtlessly less useful today). They'd also be fairly right-leaning, if anything, for the purposes of this analysis. The fake/gay degrees I included were social science and psychology, which are objectively worthless majors unless you're one of a very small handful of competent psychology people (at that point, you'd major in neuroscience, though, and be counted with the med students).
