Everything is either awesome, or it’s shit. There are no shades of gray. There’s no critical thinking in the way republicans reason. Everything is based more on emotion rather than facts which creates beliefs that are absolute.
Here are some examples of absolutes republican voters believe that not only lack any nuance, but are completely wrong for that reason.
1) Welfare is terrible and it helps no one
2) Trump is an awesome president
3) Any taxation is theft
5) America is the best country in every way.
6) Gun rights are just as important and practical as free speech rights
7) Hillary, Obama, Bill, Schumer, Al Gore or any other democrats for that matter, are all equally terrible people in every way.
8) Any GOP polician who sides with a democrat on anything at all is automatically a RINO.
9) Mad made climate change is a complete myth! GOP officials said so on Fox News therefore it is true!
10) Obama had no positive effect on the country in any way!
11) Any negative story about Trump is fake
12) Any poll showing that Trump is unpopular is not accurate. Any poll showing anything at all positive about Trump is 100% accurate because it came from Rasmussen
13) Abortion is murder regardless of the duration of the pregnancy
