    I don’t think it’s helpful to construct liberals as ignorant in the same way a child is. It is an uncritical and harmful way to think, but children can’t understand what genocide is because they haven’t lived long enough and do not know enough about the world, adults differ in that it is a choice to remain ignorant or to not change in response to knowledge.

    There’s a special kind of malice that comes from truly knowing you’re wrong but do not care to learn better; not because they can’t, but because it is inconvenient.

      The person you’re responding to can’t even construct a full sentence in English.

      A quick review of their comment history indicates they either never received an education beyond grade school or suffer from actual brain damage.

        Wow, this is really funny. I read this before your response to my asking if you’re a liberal, and here you are being racist, classist, and ableist. Was this meant to be the “yes?”
