" low levels of conscientiousness and an appetite for chaos....We found that low-conscientiousness liberals, high-conscientiousness liberals and high-conscientiousness conservatives each expressed willingness to share fake news articles to a similar — relatively small — degree. "

I have seen that here, as in the posting of click-bait headlines from new merchandisers which are misleading at best, (like You’ll need Vaccination papers to go outside in DC
https://citizenfreepress.com ^ ) while most who respond happily affirm it since it supports our conclusions, yet few actually will search the link (as here ) to see if that is indeed what the source says. Fans of such may even attack any exhortation to accuracy, which lack simply helps the opposition to categorize conservatives as gullible.

Yet in reality, the very type of sources which are generally sanctioned by the Left can provide evidence against their goals. As in the case of vaccination of children. /p>

“They always accuse their enemies of doing what they themselves are guilty of.”

Or would like to do. Remember when they called Trump a fascist who makes the novel 1984 timely?

Yes, in a way there is not. Basically churches can preach to government, it is government which cannot preach in churches.

Written by an assistant professor and a STUDENT from Duke University. Enough said.
