Ive seen this over and over in real life.
Some dumb asshole is doing something stupid and smarter people just stand around being polite because they dont want to rock the boat.
Dumb assholes are too stupid to see that they in fact, do not actually know it all. But they only consume CNN HUFFPO REUTERS and get their backs patted constantly.
signed : Former liberal who also thought they knew it all
A lot of the most effective Conservatives are former Liberals.
Andrew Breitbart
Ronaldus Reagan
David Horowitz (former commie!)
Charles Krauthammer
Etc., etc.
I think it's because when you grow up Liberal you feel entitled to have things go your way and to protest and make a big noise when they don't. You're OFFENDED when people try to take away your rights. But when you grow up Conservative you become used to being an oppressed class very early on and you internalize it, and just expect things to always be that way.
