Let me explain the question:

If fox news and religious propaganda are exactly that, propaganda, then they are victims.

If, however, every person is free to listen to what they want and then rant against liberals, migrants, Muslims, Arabs, trans, gays, atheists, you name it, then they are just gullible.

I’d have more patience for a victim than a gullible person.

Everybody is free to believe what they want to believe. What I don’t get is why they have to stir things up and why they believe they are the only ones getting it and everyone else is dumb, woke, a communist or is going to hell. Why can’t they keep their opinions to themselves?

  • Sympathize? Sure. To empathize would be me taking on the burden of their mental illness. Not healthy for anyone involved. To sympathize requires understanding. I understand them, they are children. Do we dehumanize children or use “extreme solutions” on children? No we dont, however we treat them appropriately…as children and we’d be negligent to give children the car keys.
