Man, I got ready to debunk this but just questioned my life choices instead.
Why the fuck am I glued to my smartphone arguing with people posting shit like this instead of spending time with my daughters, creating new things or looking after my own body and soul.
Michael, please copy your comment verbatim into any LLM with search capabilities and ask for primary sources that confirm or deny your statements, and break down the beliefs by party.
Then, use your real flesh and meat brain to ponder where your (not other peoples' - your own) beliefs about this came from, and what their motivations for blasting them at you could be.
Goodbye HN, I think I'm done with this site for good.
Instead of feeding the whole thing to chatgpt let's pick one item.
We tend to accept young earth creationism because perceptively it has little to do with everyday life doesn't hurt anyone and people are quite open about it. It also means that your brain is literally broken, you have no critical thinking skills and you are just the right sort to be manipulated by evil and end up building or guarding the concentration camps.
According to Gallup 95% of Republicans believe this at a strong majority 58% believe that the earth was quite literally created as is less than 10k years.
While this is magnificently stupid in and of itself it's not the problem it's merely a symptom of their disease.
They largely believe that dead kids aren't a reason to reign in guns, they believe climate change is a hoax, a cycle, or inevitable and won't do anything about it or let anyone else. They believe that us aid to poor nations was 10-15% of our budget and we just can't afford to not let kids starve when it was one-half of 1%. They believe that it may be necessary to use violence against the rest of us to maintain the status quo. They believe that we need an stong authorian to lead us democracy be damned, they believed that COVID was a scam until the corpses piled up or even after!
Here's a hilarious one. It's a graph of the percentage of the population which understood that COVID was worse than seasonal flu a march through April 2020. For Dems it goes from 74 to 87%. For Republicans it goes from 42 to 40 it actually drops whilst body count goes up.
They are magnificently staggering wrong on average about everything. We could go point by point and I could find polls for every single one because I'm basing my understanding of their position by reading their own words and polls by reputable sources like pew and Gallup.
The right Wing collectively has departed so entirely from reality that educated con artists must carefully contort their words to avoid their insanities and prejudice whilst fools spout forth with abandon uncaring.
