Cognitive Dissonance: Why do so many of you Democrats suffer from it?

[score_keeper]

Cognitive dissonance

Coping with the nuances of contradictory ideas or experiences is mentally stressful. It requires energy and effort to sit with those seemingly opposite things that all seem true. Festinger argued that some people would inevitably resolve dissonance by blindly believing whatever they wanted to believe.

Well, why do so many of you Democrats suffer from it when it comes to explaining, and believing in, your politics and policies?

Cue the, It's not us, it's the Republicans who suffer from it, responses.

"hiding" as in taking care of my farm??

That's not hiding, that's being productive...... something you beggars and welfare queens don't know anything about.

BoBo and his "crops" failed in Cali so he tucked tail and ran to BFE.

Nothing to be ashamed of. A lot of losers and non-hackers like you and vette failed here.

His garden is weed and he sucks at maintaining it. So much so that he's now trying to peddle his dirt weed in the frozen tundra. That must be embarrassing for a "botanist."

Oh right.... he's the botanist....totally forgot he watered plants for people

 

[LukSkyFokker]

For instance?

Quite the triggering of the citiots.

No, never said it was different.

BoBo and his "crops" failed in Cali so he tucked tail and ran to BFE.

Luk lies, because he has to.

I got paid, saw the writing on the wall and cashed out before I got trapped in that shit hole.

Why must you lie about absolutely everything Luk??

Also learn the difference between a botanist and a farmer.

Oh right.... he's the botanist....totally forgot he watered plants for people

Chicago and LA.....a citiot match made in heaven.

...but he getting his PhD from Stanford! I seen him waiting to get picked up at Home Depot for some landscaping labor.

I got my MS from Stanford, I'm working on my PhD at U of Mn.

He got his BS from steampile of shit. And his FullofShit from u of RushLimbaugh

MN?! Sorry to hear that.

 

[CornusKousa]

Yes because only authoritarian control freak leftist such as yourself could POSSIBLY go to school.

Liberals like myself are "alt-reich adjacent" and thus too stupid to possibly take advantage of all the education opportunities available in this country.

MN?! Sorry to hear that.

Why? It's nice here. Still largely liberal....could pull the stick out of it's ass about weed, but still very liberty oriented.

I mean as long as the lunatics in Minneapolis don't ruin the fuckin' state I'll probably stay here.

If the lunatics in Minneapolis do?? I'm off to a more liberal state, Montana.

I was told that in the best country in the world that I can do whatever I want to do.

But yah, I went to a school that taught critical thinking...where a factual baseline above neanderthal was required.

It's not called botany in most universities.

"Plant Science" is the term used, 'Applied Plant Science" is the program I'm in.

It's not the Democrats, it's the Republicans who suffer from it. Your thread is a great example of you being a slave to it.
