More Americans believe Charlie Kirk’s killer is a Republican than believe he is a progressive?

People can be maliciously stupid. There are actually many exceptions to Hanlon’s Razor, “Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity”.

Willful ignorance is one of those exceptions. This disbelief in plain fact is fed by bad information or outright lies, and comes in large measure by a total lack of any critical thinking.

A minimum of fifty percent of all the things you learned in school and hear out on the street shall, over the experience of a lifetime, turn out to be untrue and illogical. The actual percentage may turn out to be much higher.

The spidy-sense is not well developed in everybody.

Compare/contrast the absolutely gleeful celebrations on the Left and mourning on the conservative and moderate side vs. the supposed results of this poll. On its face it makes no sense. People who care enough to be even modestly informed know what happened.

Please, this just tells you how inaccurate “polls” are.

Look at ANY discussion online, the few that claim “MAGA” just get swamped.

Leftist do not wait for the truth to come out. They assume what they want and insist on sticking with it no matter what the facts turn out to be.

It is not fake news, but voluntary, willing self-deception to keep up a world view....that only christian conservatives are bad, all immoral perversion is good.

If true, it reaffirms that propaganda works. Sadly.

Got into an argument with a lefty in the family (I should have known better, lefties are impervious to facts, logic, hard data, video and reasoning - tried and all failed).

He would not back down from the killer being a White Magass Supremacist and Trump supporter. If it was in the HuffPo, on CNN or the alphabet networks, than it is as if it’s the word of God and “settled science,” not open to opinion or interpretation.

Making Thanksgiving guest list now. No lefties are welcome in my home, family or not.
