    I can see what you are getting at, although that is not a great example. Based off the comments I am seeing there’s a lot of dumb and predictable nonsense in that Reddit thread, I really hope you aren’t finding any of that to be informative or genuinely thoughtful. I disagree with how you characterize this phenomenon, but I do agree that something has changed over the past few decades that’s resulted in it becoming noticeably easier to encounter leftists who are misinformed, and/or blinded by motivated reasoning, and/or driven by emotion.
