Why are there so many profoundly stupid people when politics is involved?
Many people are intelligent in their own ways but when it comes to politics involved it seems like you can see the stupidest part of them. I know I don't know everything but sometimes when I read internet comments I just think to myself "Wow that is an incredibly stupid thing to say and/or believe." when referring to even the most basic facts.

US politics is literally the worst kind of politics that's out there, mostly because it's so ingrained in their culture and country that people literally identify themselves by what party they voted for, or what end of the spectrum they sit on.

Plenty of people there will literally not associate with someone who votes the opposite way, regardless of who that person is as a person (putting aside the current political climate, anyway).

Couple this with decades of propaganda about what both parties do and an education system that is severely lacking in most states and politicians who are some of the worst scum on the planet, this is what you end up with when it comes to "discussion" on any political topic (or topics that aren't inherently political, but turn into them).

This is my best guess on it.
Because people voted for idiots until stupidity became a norm.

It's a circus either way, but at least the UK actually does treat it like a circus unlike America that pretends to be formal.

Because the internet has given a voice to everyone.
At least 90% of the posts in this thread will be BS. Looks like it's already trending that way.

"A population somewhere votes for people that they don't get to choose who is on the ballot, effectively. So they be bad." Mmmmk. If you say so.

Even if this place didn’t allow politics they will vent their anger somewhere else, sadly.
Freedom worldwide. :csd2smile:
