but now we get to the serious stupidity of what you actually believe: That it’s only conservatives who have magical realities. Many progressives still believe trumpkins are all bigots. They believe in this crazy world where the only people who disagree with them are hopelessly backward and full of hate. They’re deluded in exactly the same way their conservative counterparts are. The only difference is they aren’t as cynical as the right. a lot of the right views disinformation as a form of political strategy. Most progressives actually believe - ludicrously - that they know the truth.
It’s the credulous and the cynical on the right vs. The merely credulous on the left. And their respective media sources feed their delusions.
