What got us here? Pandering to a base that has been carefully nurtured by Fox Noise, which, itself, panders to the most ignorant and bigoted.

Right, because the left wing follows the science, yessireeee.

Most left wingers don't know "Science" from a Pop Tart (other than to say the pop tart has frosting on it). But since they took a High School class on "Science" they're all Sooper Experts on most things.

But what it really comes down to is to be able to virtue signal that you're in with the "it" crowd. An actual, functional understanding of the thing you're professing your love for isn't required. Just the signal to the rest of the herd of lemmings that You're On Their Team is enough.

And *that's* who the left panders to.
