If there’s a single, universal truth about politics, it’s that it’s safe to ignore anyone who presents any one side as simple and virtuous. Break this rule, and it’s not an ideology you’re following, it’s a cult and the person you’re talking to is a zealot.
This is not a law of nature. Suppose, just hypothetically, that some party glued themselves to mendacity so thoroughly that even when a ridiculous lunatic is elected President they support him without question? Thankfully that could never happen. |
