Facts have a liberal bias. Conservatives live in a fantasy world like “the secret” where if they think it, and will it, it must be true. It is partly how they navigate cognitive dissonance. “We are the party of freedom, oh people don’t like unrestricted access to guns, we’ll ignore that.. people want access to health care? well, we can tell them what they can have. 40% of the population disagrees with us? Well, we will gerrymander them down to no power. We love freedom. Oh, we love low taxes, but we keep running up debt and raising taxes on the non elites. We love the business and economy, well we will have shittier growth because of our shittier leaders. We hate wars, but we will start then and let someone else finish it. We love the military so lets cut their benefits. We love law and order, but we are the party of felons, conmen, convicts, and pardoning violent criminals. We love the children, so we are the party of pedophiles. We love Jesus, so we ignore everything he said. We protect our people so we sell weapons to people who attacked us and butchered our people. We love freedom of the press, except if they don’t report do exactly what we say with no fact checking. Shall I go on?
