Elitist Traitors vs Fascist Morons

On the Media | Dec 4, 2015

For many on the Left, Trump's popularity confirms their worst suspicions: that half of the population are fascistic morons. Similarly, President Obama's presidency has confirmed for many on the Right that half of the population are America-hating elitists (who are also morons). According to Michael Lind, co-founder of the New America Foundation, these myths we perpetuate to explain how someone could have a different political, religious, or economic belief than we do are perhaps the most dangerous lies of all.
