So basically you’re saying that his audience are libs, more or less, who maintain that blind spot intentionally so that they don’t have to engage in self criticism and do the hard work it takes to shift their own paradigm? Cuz yeah it’s much easier to just take his word for it, I guess, than thinking that someone on “your team” could be doing something nefarious…It’s just very difficult for me to understand people who are happy with surface explanations and don’t want to do further investigation. To me that quality is the foundation of leftist thought.

If I were to give him the benefit of the doubt I could see him acting as a plant to throw the feds off, maybe, but how likely is that? Idk
