We’ll see in November. I really hope I’m wrong, but everything I’ve seen suggests that rather than question their beliefs, humans prefer to rationalize away the discrepancies between reality and their thoughts rather than change their beliefs. E.g. Liberals fleeing leftist shtholes like NY, MA, NJ, CA,etc and work at turning their new locales into copies of what the ruined. Anecdotal evidence my wife’s sister is a Democrat. She believes inflation is caused by greedy companies making too large a profit. She is not a stupid person, but she is unwilling to change her beliefs so she rationalizes away reality with the flimsiest of excuses that anyone with a smattering intelligence could see right through. I’m not optimistic.
M Aybe your sister will change when she can no longer afford groceries or gas.
EVery person has to take their own individual dosage of “smarten up.”Some take longer than others.
