Lawyers who tried to overturn 2020 results knew they were wrong. They will have to testify against the former president, but their conspiracy theories are still fuelling Republican politics, legal experts tell Alex Woodward
We're talking about conservatives here... People so profoundly unintelligent, they still belive there is a child sex ring in the basement of a pizza shop even after it became known that there is no basement there.
Think about all of the conservatives you know. Is it a coincidence that they are also the least intelligent people you know?
It's dangerous and counterproductive to say all conservatives are stupid. It implies they're mere victims of misinformation. While this is true for many, there are millions of smart, rich, knowingly evil and selfish conservatives who willingly design and execute evil deeds of conservative politics.
It's not always a lack of intellect on their part. Its the primacy of emotional processes like fear such that intellect is subordinated to those emotional processes.
Ah, good ole' "never attribute to malice that which can explained away by treating other people as subhuman trash so you don't have to put intelligent thought into your beliefs".
Or as "a man." Quick to anger I mean - that's the one thing all my male friends have in common. And the one thing I've worked to overcome mostly - not being so quick to anger. And being willing to have other emotions that feel much better in my life.
In at least some cases, they knew emotionally and intellectually, and didn’t care. They repeated a lie knowingly, because they were mad their bully in chief wasn’t reappointed by the flipping EC, which both sides are finally admitting are a detriment to democracy.
I know a lot of very intelligent people who are deep down the crazy conservative rabbit hole. These people are so smart they don't even acknowledge that their knowledge has gaps.
They choose their sources of information very carefully to confirm the conclusions that their superior intellect has already come to. Any contradictory notions are obviously wrong!
Isn't that the truth. And it's sickening. Not just that people are dull enough to buy into such malarky but willing to give up their morals and ethics and humanity. Sorry but I've never met a conservative who I thought had the brains of a flea. They are so easily lead by the nose to the their own destruction.
The entire pizzagate lie seems to have been patterned wholesale from the Franklin sex abuse allegations. They just lied about who, what, and where, but all the other details are similar.
Regressives are deeply uncreative. Almost every accusation is an admission, because they can't imagine anything outside of their own experiences.
