Most people change their political ideologies as they go through life, experience new things, and continue to learn. This is natural, and the vast majority of these folks are perfectly honest and sincere.
On the other hand, there are people like JD Vance, Tulsi Gabbard, and, of course, Donald Trump, who are simply opportunists. They would try to convince you that day is night if they thought it would further their careers.
They count on Americans to accept things like the following: Last June, we obliterated Iran’s nuclear weapons capability. Now we have to re-obliterate it.
There is a huge audience of American fools who are thinking: makes perfect sense to me! When we get finished with this war, we’re gonna f*** it up again!
Within the realm of political punditry, I’ve always wondered if people like Rush Limbaugh actually believe what he told their wildly receptive American audience. Is he really a hateful moron, or was he, just like the televangelists, just another career actor, looting the bank accounts of our nation’s idiots?
There Are Legitimate and Illegitimate Reasons to Shift One’s Political Views
Answer:
No. About 70% of the country objects to Trump’s sociopathic criminality.
He’s supported by about 28% of hateful morons, and 2% of rich greedy, selfish pigs.
As they say, “Check your bank account if you want to know which of these groups you fall into.”
If you want to remain ignorant of science, that’s your choice. Homeschool your kids and teach them that rejecting Christ will send them to an eternity of torment in hell.
You’ll need to start while their still young, while they’re still incapable of asking you why all the little boys and girls who are born in non-Christian countries are doomed to be tortured forever.
Maybe if you can isolate them such that they’ll never question why the bible says the Earth is 6000 years old, when dinosaur bones are hundreds of millions of years old.
If you want to go down this road, which I call child abuse, you have that right.
But realize this: as time passes and science continues to help us cure disease, explore space, extend our lives, and, we hope, help us to avert environmental collapse, your position will reveal itself for what it is: cruel stupidity.
Dr. Brian Cox has risen to the status of what I would call an “astrophysics badass” in a matter of just a few short years. Anywhere you go on social media, there’s Cox making you think the most profound thoughts imaginable.
I won’t give anything away, but I caution you to fasten your seatbelt.
