12. Foxnews/hate radio also brainwashes the notion that democrats are pure evil

Foxnews addicts tolerate nearly anything from republicans in part because they've been programmed to think of democrats as nearly pure evil.

So they'll tolerate big scandals in what they see as otherwise good politicians because the alternative is somehow so completely horrendous. To them, they support Donnie because to do otherwise is to support the devil.

They may or may not think of this in religious terms, but in any event the effect is this strong. Decades of hearing about democrats linked with negative words said with derision and a smear, like socialism and communism and scandals and emails and elitism and taxes and whatever.

They think of us as the dark side. Yeah, as if darth Vader wanted to give people health care. Crazy, but this is how they've been programmed to think.


Plus, yeah, they're racists. They don't like the label. They like thinking of themselves as non-racist. In fact they like thinking American is not racist. Nothing like preserving white privilege than by pretending they're not big beneficiaries of it....
