Damn straight. The idea that poor equals thick and we somehow have to bow down to that thickness out of what? Guilt? Deference to authenticity?
That's the fantastic trick the Republicans have pulled off in the States, now we're supposed to follow.
Liverpool voted Remain. So did the poorest parts of Scotland.
It's the left's job to educate or offer a vision to seduce or whatever you want to call it. It's supposed to offer something better and better informed, not to accommodate ignorance.

It's not about dumbing down or educating up (like some sort of white Knight). Its about delivery simple messages, because most people are lazy and have better things to do than listen to another tit spout a load of lies. You need simple messages that can appeal to a wide base.
The leave campaign did a great job:
- libitarian? Soverenty.
- disenfranchised? Imigrants.
- poor? £350m p/w.
- libitarian? Soverenty.
