Sad thing is, I don't think any of these people even do any research at all about whatever cause they are claiming to represent. They simply jump on the bandwagon and go with the rest of the PC crowd. Because of the close knit group they hang with, they don't understand the views of the general public. I think they actually believe that their views are much more popular than they are. Also, to a large degree they believe they really do know better then the general populace.
