Why are the radical right and the GOP so easily duped by conmen?

[BoyNextDoor]

They believe every lie they are told. From the small ones "I won't have time to play golf if I'm elected president" right up the the Big Lie and every other lie in between.

What is the root of it? Is it because they believe the lie about god and so are predisposed to lies in general?

Is it because they need the comfort of the lies?

Lack of formal, high level education.

Specificlly, education on the difference between Govt(public sector) and private sector and why laws apply differently in each. Also, accountability (public sector is accountable to citizens, private sector is accountable to shareholders/owners via profits).

Lack of education on understanding what is knowledge, the types of knowledge, difference between facts and opinions, what a source is and what type is it(which matters).

Lack of education on civics and sociology. Understanding the basics of what Capitalism, Socialism, Communism, Facism, Authoritarianism, and others like Social Democracies or Banana Republics.

Basic understanding that Capitalism has no relevance on Democracy. Also, basic understanding of where Capitalism comes from and what are it's down sides.

Lack of knowledge of the importance the Freedom of the Press and that is has nothing to do with partisan politics. Also, "free information or content" on the internet (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, others) is not the same thing as the Constitutional protection for a free Press.

That is a short list....

 

[2021Noobie]

They love donating every month to the rich without even meaning to give
They think the poor “squander” money

 

[KeithD]

I think the question is how many of them really believe the shit they espouse, or are they just totally lacking in morals and will do anything to gain/maintain control from the minority purely to be in a position to line their pockets.

 

[Dribble]

They have no morals.

They are racists at heart.

They need someone to blame for their failed lives.

They are really that stupid.


Fuck...I could go on but why?

You confuse education and schooling. They aren't synonymous, and you're proof of it. You all fell for a career politician that's been the source of the problems of the last 50 years and the reason why so many people were willing to trying anything different, no matter how much Trump left to be desired. The worst part is how you think that he will solve the problems that he hasn't solved in the 50 years he was in office.

 

[KeithD]

I doubt anyone is surprised that Cubantripod is one of the duped.

Biden is doing just fine--especially when compared with his predecessor incompetent loser/killer.

 

[rae121452]

was it p. t. barnum who said, "there's a sucker born every minute"? it's congenital and incurable.

Career politicians are not a problem. Every republic needs them.

So, your response is not correct for me....yes, Biden is a career politician and he(his type of Politics) does cause problems. The jailing of an entire generation of black men is something that is a perfect.example of some of the worst Biden has to offer.

He is way better than Trump could ever be even if he had fifty years to get there. Yep, my choice for 2020 was not for Biden until I was left with no choice but either Biden or Trump.

For me, that was an easy choice. It would have to be a bullet.in the head to vote for Trump.

Your painting all of us who voted for Biden with a very broad brush that doesn't really fit reality.

I want better choices of candidates than Biden, Hillary, Trump, Cruz, you name it.

Hopefully,.some day

This all day!

One thing I've noticed is that they tend to blame others for their miseries and failures in life. They are so PROUD of being ignorant.

They naturally possess low self-esteem which they mask with delusions of superiority.

 

[Bud_Spencer]

So how is President Avenatti these days?

Paraphrasing the research a tad here, but the males tend to be sexually repressed because of rigid religious upbringings that doesn’t allow them to sort through the funny feelings they get when their wives make them watch things like Magic Mike. In addition, Madonna-whore complexes abound. This elicits confusion and vague fears that morph into anger. In addition, a passive mother and a distant but critical father makes them resent women and yearn for approval from a male authority.

Women were similarly in desperate need of an approving male, both hating they needed it as much as they craved it, as daddy typically abandoned the family and mommy ran through a series of deadbeats they had to fend off.

They say the times choose the man and trump came along at the right time and spoke to their unfocused, simmering rage, both channeling it and praising its expression. So he became the stern daddy they craved and they would do anything to keep his affection.

Oh big size = maximum authority!!!

LOL what a joke.

It has everything to do with what you posted and how that post demonstrates your total detachment from reality and lack of self awareness.

I bet you couldn't define "capitalism" any better than AOC..... "EXPLOITATION!!! I WANT FREE SHIT!!!! WAHHH!!!" LOL
