    The “brainwashed” thought is a problem for many, mostly at the fringes of a given subject. They believe something so strongly that it seems like it is self evident fact, so how come 51%+ of the country either disagrees or doesn’t care? And social media bubbles, news media political differentiation, and the rural/urban divide make it worse because everyone they know, agrees with them too.

    So everyone else couldn’t possibly be looking at the same objective facts and disagreeing in good faith…they must be…brainwashed?
