Why do you think people voted these idiots in? In large part it's due to a distrust of science and rationality, "the system of the elites". Don't tell me that I need to vaccinate my kids! I'll cure my pancreatic cancer naturopathologically.
In my unbroken experience, they possess a demonstrated ability to believe in trivially disproven lies.
Some might say, who cares about what idiots think? Well, these idiots get one vote, just like the rest of us.
If it was just laziness, their belief wouldn't persist in the face of better information.
Willfully clasping onto an absurd premise this way strongly implies to me there is some sub-optimal psychology in play. There is a needful relationship inside that is being sustained (at a starvation level) by these exploitive external forces.
You can still have and respect beliefs, but distinguishing fact from belief is purely in the realm of philosophical debate. That doesn’t mean you have to accept absence of absolute truth or facts, but there is much we don’t know and that we think we know but we don’t, and that is logical and illogical. Life is dichotomy.
