(#6301) The underbelly of America is exposed with trump

      Most of us are not part of the underbelly but enough were fooled into supporting it for trump to come into power. So what does that tell me about the moral and ethical persuasions of not only the crass underbelly but those fooled into supporting trump? It tells me that the core of the underbelly is decayed. It has no honor or nobility to it. The decay is void of logic and common sense. Yet what it does have is emotion. Misplaced emotion but emotion nonetheless. The emotion takes the form of hatred and condescension backed by rhetoric. I cannot find logical sequencing with it is what I mean.
     For decades too many of these lazy souls did not want to learn for themselves. Instead they relied upon the voices on the right that seemed understandable to them. False arguments pitting some in the working middle poor class against others in the working middle poor class. These false arguments served to create chaos among we the people instead of where the real problems lay. At the feet of the wealthy and their republican political party. The wealthy and the republicans have had a long run in convincing the lazy learners in our society that everyone else is either a liar or a crook. For these lazy learners these stereotypes work as a backstop when they are confronted with their own inadequacies and cognitive dissonance.
     So trying to have a debate or civil argument with the lazy learners can never begin because the lazy learners do not accept the rules of logic as a common fact finding exercise. They dismiss evidence as false and their own opinions as fact. No bridge can span between the two opposing concepts. So all that is left to do is keep trying and hope that some within the lazy learners will evolve and/or just move on without them. Sadly it is what I have done personally as I have no more patience left when wasting my time over and over again. There has been one silver lining in all of this and that is that trump is so clueless in his administration that he exposes the the right wing viewpoints daily as illogical and false.
