    Yes, because we haven’t been calling them fools for years, maybe we should try it! Maybe it’ll work and not just drive them further and further away from sanity out of spite!

      This guy gets it.

      Demonizing the south as inbred yokels who can’t read doesn’t get them to listen to you, it just reinforces their xenophobic ideas about how the Liberal Elite are mocking them.

          Yesn’t

          You gotta take a “Do no harm, but take no shit.” attitude and walk a fine line: Speak softly, carry a big stick.

      We’ve also been trying to explain facts but that’s even less effective.

        Some people have been trying, sure. But most just choose to try and prove their superiority by being as obnoxious as possible.

        And no, saying what you believe to be right in a condescending matter is not “trying to explain facts”.

          You lay out the bare facts. Proof is demanded. You lay out proof: studies, papers, data. The response is that the data is made up and that these so-called scientist and experts are not to be trusted. That’s followed up that it’s all the fault of Kamela anyway because she slept her way to the top or something similar. Oh yes, great conversations.

      Americans love nothing more than to wallow in their own filth while pointing and laughing at their neighbors.

      I am smart. You are dumb. That’s why we’re in this mess together.
