... that the weak minds that are drawn to conservatism cannot cope with abstractions, like "other people", or issues without physical substance, or complexities beyond their limited intellectual capabilities. Their inchoate resentments need a target, so they fling poo at anything they can't – or won't – try to understand. And any factual information that doesn't conform to their narrow world view is "Fake News". Most of them are beyond hope or redemption. In effect, write-offs.
I have no sympathy for them, only contempt.
