The easy thing would be to say "Yes, they are"
But that is not true, they are, in reality, no dumber than we are. In my opinion, they do it because they have a political agenda they want to impose upon us and they will side with anyone who will help them reach it and to hell with the consequences. They can always deal with that later, they feel.
They are louder than we are because the MSM helps spread their message.
I dunno...sometimes I get the feeling that they believe they have no choice but to go along with it. Like there is some kind of nuclear blackmail going on.
