This discussion has now morphed into why do liberals think the way they do, one of my favorite subjects.
A mental disorder? A high percentage of homosexuals are mentally off. Atheists, Communists, drug dealers - - wow, this could be a long list.
Then there are the people who don't see anything hypocritical about doing the exact thing they tell other people not to, like carry a gun for self defense, or send their kids to upscale private schools.
Let's say they are like the math-challenged people who buy lottery tickets. Liberals are logic-challenged, and tend to go into fields where opinion and emotion hold sway, like sociology and humanities. There is certainly a lot of confused thinking out there masquerading as expertise.

Can’t argue with that. I do know one or two fairly sane people who buy lottery tickets but it is a routine of ONE ticket per week, never more, and is considered a small entertainment expense, worth it for the vanishingly small chance that they may EVER hit it big, expense wise it is like playing penny poker. I think I have bought a total of three lottery tickets in my entire life and not one within the past ten years. I did talk on the phone last night with someone who was my coworker over thirty years ago and he mentioned that he actually is personally acquainted with not one but two huge winners, huge like 140 million and 260 million. It sounds almost impossible but I believe him because I do know that this man who is past eighty survived seven heart attacks in his forties which is even more amazing than knowing two lottery winners. After all those heart attacks he married a coworker who was at least ten years younger than he was and has outlived her. He now lives as an elderly widower in Asheville, NC. Neither of the lottery winners has offered to buy him so much as a new recliner.
