It's funny, if you go on most political subs on Reddit, a solid 3rd or more of posts are people asking "why do our opponents dumb and not agreeing with us when we are so smart and good?" (hexbear.net)

And 90% of the replies are people going "cuz they are dumb and bad!" and maybe like three guys heavily downvoted at the bottom trying to provide an actual explanation.

Not saying we NEVER get posts like that here. But the whole practice of making posts like these weekly/daily/hourly just screams insecurity to me. I feel like us HexBear commies are all pretty aware of why our opponents don't agree with us and don't need daily session of us all collectively reminding each other.

I've had many attempts to explain that fash aren't stupid, they have fundamentally different goals and desires shouted down. Try to tell libs that people who disagree with them aren't misguided libs or idiots, but rather people with different beliefs, and some libs will be very angry.
