A quotation from Confucius:

«««««
To be born enlightened: that is highest. To study and so become enlightened: that is next. To feel trapped and so study: that is third. To feel trapped and never study: that is the level of the common people, the lowest level.

Fox News audiences are America’s hateful hoi polloi who don’t care if what they’re told is true. The thing that’s most important to them is that they hear what they want to hear, because it validates their hate and gives them comforting answers that they’re too lazy to fabricate on their own.

@CanadianPolling
The ignorance level is every party is astonishing — we're in the 21st century, and evolution is basic biology. The PPC seems completely ignorant.

I wonder if you'd get the same results if you asked whether they accept gravitation as a reality.

Here's a simple take: most people are more interested in unbiased reporting than opinion/unqualified supposition. But the latter is the majority of what we see & hear. Why?
