No, I mean that the measure of success in our society is wealth, and there are a lot of very smart academics who really resent the fact that they are not valued higher than people who are, in their minds, dumber than them. There's a resentment that their own perceived intellectual gifts don't translate into that monetary measure of success - that our society fails to reward the right factors.

And these academics are just as insecure as the type A Republican strivers who sell every last minute of their lives to make as much money as possible so society will accept them. So what? Both sides possess these metaphorically littled-dicked people. Fuck both of these groups for not having any self-confidence.
