After all this time, many liberals still think rational arguments will save them. They won’t just tolerate, but eagerly anticipate a massive platform for volatile conspiracy theories known to motivate violent behavior. Dems may be right that this will help them win elections – but at cost, to the rest of us, of certain people being more enraged at whichever other part of the populace they choose to blame.
