theres some stuff i do think liberals are better at - empathy, governing, basic competence - but the part that makes me roll my eyes is when libs insist we can't have our emotional buttons pushed and that unlike conservatives we're not susceptible to manipulation.
if you're human, you can and will fall for all of that.
people could create stories all day feeding in to how we feel about conservatives, and the vast majority of liberals would swallow it whole. "it felt true."
misinformation is not nearly as big a thing on left as right but really, dont pretend it doesnt exist.
