CONSERVATIVE SOCIOPATHS
LIBERAL HYPOCRITES
- California is America's largest and wealthiest state, by far, with an economy the size of South Korea or Italy. It is a blue state with a Democratic Party supermajority.

Reality is another hypocrisy paradigm.

CORRUPTION INFO
- Watch out for "perception" or "polling" or "public opinion about" presentation. These are invariably bullshit: propaganda or filler misdirection. Data is not a matter for opinion. Perception is of interest to politicians trying to get elected but it's no way to derive facts from data.
