It was meant to tickle your oafish sense of humor, Biff. After all, you're an idiot.

And BTW, there is plenty of name-calling on the right. They learned it from FOX and Rush whose programs basically depend on name-calling against liberals.

As to the first part I could also say the conservatives get tired of non factual stuff from the liberals.

The shift in the American public’s political values

This undercurrent fed into a lot of other discussions in this thread...and there's a name for it:
The Perception Gap: How False Impressions are Pulling Americans Apart
Of particular significance:

The wider people’s Perception Gap, the more likely they are to attribute negative personal qualities (like ‘hateful’ or ‘brainwashed’) to their opponents.

Understanding reduces the perception gap so the solution to this problem is education about fellow countrymen; undo the damage of echo chambers.


More on topic, Canada put out a good PSA:

So now you're using an article in a far-left, democratic soci@list rag to verify your reich-wingnut views? ROFL. You clearly just googled for something, without even bothering to check it out at all.
