How could a Republican imagine such a thing exists?
You have essentially described my soon to be ex-workplace very accurately. How my boss and coworkers ‘feel’ about the ‘energy’ of various topics is far more important than objective facts. About 4-5 years ago I just stopped arguing about vaccines, climate change, the definition of ‘conservative’ or ‘liberal’ or ‘socialist’.

I’m glad to hear that your story is soon to be past tense, that sounds like a nightmare hellscape.
It’s not all puppies and sunshine in ‘facts’ land; there’s a reason why people always have to be reminded that they aren’t entitled to their personal set; but interacting with someone who believes a bunch of blatantly false things is still working on epistemological common ground, albeit contested, while dealing with people who give primacy to feels is just a morass of emitting (usually perturbed) mouth noises orthogonal to each other.
Not a pleasant business.
I am totally stealing ‘Dunning-Krugeresque trance’.
Wow, Samantha Bee just isn’t funny.
I find her funny as fuck. But yeah, this skit wasn’t much more than a web extra.
