    Reality has a well known liberal bias.

      Is that bcz of empathy? Normal people have it, and the rich don’t, and their idiot followers aren’t smart enough to realize they’re being manipulate?

        It’s because modern conservatives are less concerned about facts.

        Republicans claim climate change is a hoax; the reality is that climate change is already causing measurable damage around the planet.

        Republicans claim Haitian immigrants are eating dogs and cats; the reality is they aren’t.

        Republicans claim Democrats want to abort newborn infants. The reality is this is illegal everywhere.

        Republicans claim illegal immigration and crime area crisis. Reality is the numbers are actually trending down.

        Republicans claim supply side economics worse. Reality is that supply side economics does not work and Democratic presidents perform better on every economic measure.

        Republicans have recently claimed that schools are doing trans surgeries on kids without their parents’ permission and immigrants have a direct phone line to Kamala Harris in exchange for illegal votes. Reality is that those are too stupid to garner a serious response.

        So yeah, reality happens to have a liberal bias when conservatives are trying to out-stupid each other.

        The rich might have empathy abd a poor might not. Those without empathy and are rich/powerful becomes the worst though as they don’t feel fear or anxiety and has no feelings for fellow humans.
