New user sees ignorance here on the Dope (about Trump)

Nice! TIL the mathematical concept of “viewpoint invariance under new information”, hitherto also known as “immunity to evidence”. It’s no joke – among the evidence that MAGAts are immune to is the sheer stupidity of their tribe: not one of them that I’ve ever seen interviewed can ever answer factual questions about political events or even about the basic structure of government that has existed for hundred of years. To them, ignorance is a virtue: where there is no cognition, there can be no cognitive dissonance, and the world is a stress-free beautiful place where they’re always right.

A world where there is free beer and a live band.

Yeah–I’ve long compared the voter ID laws to Kraken Repellent buoys that I think we should install along the coastline at great expense and tremendous inconvenience to shippers.

“But why would you do that,” you might ask, “if there’s no evidence of krakens?”

To which I respond by creating a massive fear campaign about the dangers of krakens, and then insisting that the buoys will alleviate everyone’s fear and get people to trust in the safety of our waters again.

Reminds me of this gem from The Simpsons…

Make (The) Atlantic Great Again

May I take the opportunity to remark I find it quite a thing, that a ban reads under the user profile as just suspended… for 28 years.
So, there IS hope! :laughing:

It’s not stress free, though. They’re always worried about woke agendas and whether they have enough guns and whether that cute chick they’ve been dancing with and buying drinks for all night might actually be a man, man!

Country song!

My new girl
Has a gun in her pocket
I know it
Cuz I can feel it
When we dance

I guess that IS stress free and beautiful

Ignorance and naivety, I mean…

:notes:

I know all there is to know about the crying game
I’ve had my share of the crying game
First there are kisses
Then there are sighs
And then, before you know where you are
You’re sayin’ goodbye (to Trump in jail)

:notes:

She’s just happy to see you.

Unlike Trump, Biden doesn’t care if you get eaten by a shark! It’s true!

WTF?
They pay people to write like that on a national newspaper?

I can’t write worth a flip but I could write like that.
I totally understood him. Because he thinks kinda chaotic(psychotic) like me.
I’m applying.

Don’t mako fun of it! The danger is real!

Q: How many D-Cells will it take to make Donald Trump happy?

A: The world may never know…

Dare him to lick the top of a nine volt.

Don’t forget, “Sleepy Joe” Biden also doesn’t care that wind turbines give you cancer!

Vote Trump, and embrace the new science where magnets don’t work under water! Vote Trump and avoid being eaten by sharks and electrocuted by electric boats! Protect yourself against COVID by avoiding masks and injecting bleach! Wake up, sheeple!

I used to do that to confirm it had a charge. It felt weird but was harmless.

Now I use an actual battery tester.

“We are here at the Trump rally in Las Vegas, where we’ve secretly replaced the nine volt battery that they usually serve with direct power cables from The Hoover Dam. Let’s see if Donald can tell the difference!

You may scoff, but between 2012 and 2017 there was an average of 53 shark attacks in the US per year. However, after Trump had a year to act, shark attacks dropped to an average of 35.3 a year between 2018 and 2020, only to go back up to 47 after Biden took office in 2020.

Coincididence? I think…

OK, its probably a coincidence.
