It is amazing the volume of misinformation that can be absorbed into the sponge of cognitive bias from right wing loons who never bother to examine an issue as long as they are “comfortable” with it. This comment is not only wrong in its conclusions, but has no factual information to build from in reaching those conclusions. It’s as if every thought begins from a desired conclusion and the information is then manipulated to guarantee that outcome. Countering this is impossible because it would require retraining a thought process, and I’d make a lousy primary teacher. If it were still an aberration of cognitive processes among the population one could simply ignore it, but it has been nurtured and fertilized so successfully by our Goebbelesque right wing culture that it now has the ability to win elections and drive commerce. We likely won’t recover from this institutionalized ignorance.
