I agree with much of what DougJ says here, but I think this false dichotomy is unfair:
Whether this is because they too dumb/lazy to fact check the high-minded stuff or whether they’re knowingly pushing lies, I can’t say.
I see no reason why it can’t be both, as well as the fact that many of them know where their future paychecks are coming from, a lot of them may actually fact check but are too stupid to realize what they are looking at, some of them have their ideology and it can’t be failed, etc. If we’re fair, we’ll have to admit there are lot of reasons why these folks are clowns, not just the either/or scenario DougJ created.
