I think there is a decent argument that being a liberal could be the result of insanity, stupidity or brainwashing. It is also possible that it is a combination of all of the above. Of course I am distinguishing liberal from democrat, as I know a lot of sane and smart democrats. Liberals are a different animal. If I had to guess I would say liberals are on the wrong side of the IQ bell curve, which also makes them highly susceptible to propaganda, and thus brainwashing.

And for the record, I voted D for most of my adult life and I did not vote for Trump. But he certainly will get my vote in November. Like I have any real choice?

Well, there IS a correlation with having a mental illness and being a liberal democrat.

The two go hand in hand:





When comparing liberals to conservatives, every single position on the spectrum of liberalism there is a higher rate of mental illness than every single level of the conservative side.

The miserable wretch should change her name to Marie Antoinette. How anyone could vote for someone like that is beyond me? Proof positive that "liberalism is a mental illness".

From your other posts it seems like you label anything you don't agree with or like crazy. So who is the crazy one?

I hadn't ruled out stupidity or brainwashing.
