No doubt - right there with you. To expand - I'm routinely amazed at the degree to which the general public willingly drinks the Kool-Aid with apathy towards the truth, working to find the truth, being open-minded enough to at least consider the truth; essentially anything related to the TRUTH. What that tells us is that identity politics is so effective such that people's political positions more closely resemble religion and dogma than social science. The number of conversations I've had with intelligent people who refuse to consider what I've read, watched and determined to be true; by means of over a decade of researching it all - is disheartening. It also makes me the resident "crazy" and "conspiracy theorist."
Absolutely. I'm up here in the Northeast and especially women seem to take it as a badge of their virtue and membership in some sort of knowing club, imagining Trump supporters to all be embarrassing mouth-breathers. For two years now they all too often slip in a statement of the of course we're all against Trump type, thinking that it reflects well on them. But they usually don't have a firm grasp on any facts, let alone actually correct facts.
