So, the truth. How is it that the truth is so easily dismissed? Are lies really that attractive?
@dauphin87 If they are lies that people want to hear, yes.
Trump may have sounded like a Nazi when he was talking about rounding up all the the immigrants, but it's music to the ears of his followers. He's telling them he will put those brown-skinned people in their place.
Apparently so because lies allow one to continue in amoral behavior!
@dauphin87 youโve got meโฆ itโs more tha
N frustrating
@Museek you are one who I know would be frustrated by such.
@dauphin87 In order: Because there is nothing in the human brain that says you can't believe whatever nonsense you feel like.
And yes. That seems readily apparent.
People don't believe things because they are true or factual. They believe them because they want to. Some people _want_ to have "it's not bullshit" as a requirement to want to believe, but there's no mechanism in the brain that enforces anything like that.
@dauphin87 It's insane, but that is really how some people operate.
