29. Liberals use facts and analyze nuances before coming to conclusions

Mar 2020

We know there are right winger in cities.

We know there are many liberals in rural areas

It is our nature to analyze facts, find exceptions, and try to arrived at a balanced conclusion.

Right wing demagogues do not do this. They rely on feeling ("truthiness&quot instead of facts, view the world as either/or, find scapegoats to blame for problems, and focus their anger on these scapegoats. They vent rage at a convenient target.

Unfortunately, right wing demagogues dominate the AM airwaves and influence many people.
