@ClarkPotter if your positions are so bad that you need to lie that blatently to defend them, wouldn't it be less embarrassing to just admit you were wrong and change your oppinions?

@Cussy69_420 rule of thumb: however bad you think shit in America is, it's actually significantly worse. That applies even if you live here.

Unfortunately it's not that they don't believe it's hard. It's that they believe you deserve it being a miserable, desperate existance.

Like "think of the children" wherever the right brings up mental health it's just a smokescreen to cover views they know they can't get away with expressing honestly. It's NEVER genuine!

@ZombieBarioth unfortunately, and with kindness, I must tell you that you're laboring under the delusion that the point of reference would matter. I promise you it wouldn't. I suggest watching Innuendo Studios' "alt-right playbook". In particular for this issue "Always a Bigger Fish" is exceptionally relevant. Also topical is "The Origins of Conservatism" and "I Hate Mondays"...and that's not even getting into the psychology of fascism. They believe that if you're in that situation is evidence you deserve it and feel not sympathy but a sense of superiority at the suffering of those at the bottom. You're assuming that they may be wrong about a lot of stuff but they share a desire to make a world that's better for everyone including those at the bottom. They don't. Period. And I mean that with full sincerity. You're not going to move them with appeals to sympathy. Their politics never EVER have been about making the world a better place. They're not trying to reach the same underlying goals as us and failing. They simply don't share our values or motivations. They don't care about a better world. They care about where their position is in whatever world is to exist. It's ALL about power and heirarchy. Some bad thing inflicted on someone below them raises their perception of their own station in the world. That's why they support positions that help no-one and only hurt people they see as below them. It's not the cost of a mistake trying to achieve some desirable end; it's an intent they won't/can't own up to.

@DustinMikkelsen no, that would be because of your side embrassing fascism. Just look at who's doing all the mass shootings for an obvious sign of who the intolerant extremists actually are. Appeasement doesn't work. We know it. You know it. That's why you want us to engage in it: so fascism wins.

If I may pull a quote from Innuendo Studios, it's not even that they're lying; it's that "they legitimately do not care whether the words coming out of their mouths are true." https://youtu.be/xMabpBvtXr4

I believe the term for what you're talking about is "survivorship bias". With people like Rogan it probably goes even deeper than that.
