They would see it as nonbelievers propaganda against them which only strengthens their belief. Instead of thinking “Hmm, maybe I should consider this other view”, it is “Ha! You’re against me so I know I’m right!”

Thank you Kasumii; your remarks are most worthwhile. Please keep commenting, and hopefully you can avoid the haters.

Speaking of unreasoning fanatics, AOC is still regularly harassed by them, this time MT Greene. I wish people would treat her with respect.

I like AOC too. She’s intelligent, articulate and clearly takes her job seriously.

She's an intelligent, articulate, fearless young woman of color who has actual working class credentials. Must be infuriating to those white mostly male plutocrats.

There's a theory that men who hate AOC do so because she is attractive. They desire but can never have her, so they seek to destroy the unattainable object of desire.

She's everything they wish they were but can never be, including cool. 😎

Well, perhaps some of these genius creative millennials coming up will create some very fine films that can subtly overtime unravel the indoctrination. I’ll hold onto my optimism, I am frequently impressed and amazed and the more equity we have across the board the more hope we have for our most creative geniuses to flower 😁
