It’s not that these groups are full of true liberals, it’s that much of the population isn’t tolerant of lies and misinformation. So it seems that “conservatives” are being targeted.
I've seen people be objectively correct but assholes with their delivery and get fucking blasted on here. Regardless of politics I'd youre a prick you get vibe checked.
As it should be. I'm tired of lying and "alternative facts" being the new normal.
I rather tolerate honest pricks
<nobodyAsked>I'm still unreasonably salty about getting bodied into negatives after pointing out that the fusion research coming out of the National Ignition Facility is just nuclear weapons research. ~~That's what Laser Inertial Confinement is, it's a very contained implosion bomb. Their role in the nuclear stewardship program is the first thing in their damn "about me" page. Gah.~~ I wasn't even (all that) rude about it, its just really hard for some people on here to accept that their understanding is flawed (myself very much included)
