Couldn’t find another thread on this (maybe it’s old, my iPad can’t find it).
Just had an “ interesting” conversation with some of the guys I work with (older Trumpers and even one who claimed he’s a Democrat). The avowed Dem went off on NY’s new abortion bill, and said that they were going to be killing babies even after they’re born.
Now, even some Trumpers in the van said “there must be a mistake, somethings wrong, they wouldn’t be doing that” and he replied “that’s what I heard on the radio”.
So I proceeded to pull up the National Review and read the group the text in their article describing the actual wording of the law; it doesn’t even come close to what he was proclaiming.
Everyone got very quiet, as these “old” (most of them are older than Earle by more than a few years) guys aren’t used to anyone calling them out on their cow manure.
What brought this up was the article I just read on PBS, which said 80% of Twitter users who were spreading “fake news” (from sites not known for the veracity of their articles) during the 2016 elections were conservatives.
I can think of words to describe people in this group, but “conservative” isn’t one of them; neither is “liberal” for the other 20%.
