Wow. And I thought I could be condescending towards the political opposition.
Obviously my approach was wrong. My greater point is that one mindset cannot validly draw sweeping conclusions about an entire other mindset and hope to reach any useful truths. I laid my post out to demonstrate how fucking foolish it is to even try.

Actually one thing we do have some scientific data on is that people who self-identify as liberal tend to have conceptions of the political opposition more divorced from reality than do conservatives regarding their opposition. The people who's understanding of the opposition is most divorced from reality, are in fact high status liberals. We've discussed that study here before.
