Why is everyone in the other political party so dumb?

[NOTHINGEVERHAPPENS]

Everyone who doesn’t vote like me and harbor the same opinions as me is not only a moron, but hates our country. There also ugly, and bad people. Why is this?

Echo chambers convert fringe ideas into common sense and thus make everyone who is outside that echo chamber appear stupid.

Unfortunately it's not so simple as that as the fact that that's possible means that it's also exploitable. If one party then engages in intentional stupidity they get a pass on being called objectively stupid because they can just say they are only being called stupid by a rival echo chamber. This problem is further compounded by the fact that only one party has to do this for it to appear that all parties are doing it, because of course they will simply mimic and project onto the parties that aren't.

To determine if this is happening I would encourage you to consider if their are any parties that may have a history if condemning educated people as elitists and possibly a recent history of picking nominees based on the strength of their skills in bullying and projection rather than their policies.

Or just look to matters of public record 🤷

I'm an independent, and I think both parties are corrupt, but Trump has really, really dumbed down the GOP

[NOTHINGEVERHAPPENS]

Compared to their nominees in 08 and 12?

[OtterMan68]

are you kidding? Compare the dumb stuff Trump says and his constant lying and how MAGA makes excuses for it.

What's that 'other political party' you're referring to?

[NOTHINGEVERHAPPENS]

The one I disagree with.

[Anonymous]

Don't forget us independents. Both parties hate us too.

[NOTHINGEVERHAPPENS]

Yeah. You too. Stop thinking for yourself and vote how I want you to.

Obviously what you describe is a person feeling intolerant to different opinions.

Now when it comes to border, those supporting harris m democrats show they hate america strongly.
