    They’re terrified that if they think about it too much or learn too much about it that they will have their mind changed and be alienated by their family/friends/communities.

    Some are just incredibly stupid, but I’d say most are just fucking cowards.

      You’re seeing fear and cowardice where there is none. Nobody is “scared” of learning about politics.

      To make such an assumption is… odd.

      So, why are you so afraid?

        I’m not afraid to learn about politics and challenging the ideals of the people around me, which is more than I can say for the magats who live in fear of daddy not loving them anymore when they tell him Trump is a moron.

        You don’t think these people are scared? I do. I think they’re terrified. I’m not so sure why you’re defending magats, though.
