Are you serious? How much BS do you have to consume to believe this?
"Republican party is much more homogenized, both in beliefs and race. Easier to dehumanize the nonbelievers. Just look at any mention of the word liberal in this thread. Also Trump's base tends to be more authoritarian, more susceptible to conspiracy theories, etc.
Democrats and liberal individuals don't make political affiliation as much of their personal identity as those tied to the Fox News cycle, and it is really difficult for right wingers to comprehend that there isn't a left wing counterpart to their propaganda network. Normal people don't exist in this world where every event is processed in this politically partisan way.
These two are my favorite. Republican Party is not lockstep in everything. The Dem Party absolutely is. When it comes to race, it's rather easy to see what has happened. Democrats thrive on identity politics and racial conflict. They need a boogeyman to sell to their base and that's white people. See, white people were no longer voting for Dems. It has been decades since they won the majority of the white vote. So what do they do? Import the third world. Big shock that most Republican voters are white because it seems, most people who like capitalism and want the western world are white. Non-whites are more likely to vote for bigger government, which is the Dem Party strategy.
Democrats don't make their political affiliation a part of their identity? You're trying to tell me the crowd who protests non-stop, has #resist and #blacklivesmatter in their bios don't use their political affiliation as their identity? No one freaks out more about disagreeing with their politics than a liberal, which is why there is a hit piece after hit piece over anyone who isn't on their side.
"
there isn't a left wing counterpart to their propaganda network."
This is how I know you're brainwashed. There isn't a counterpart? THE ENTIRE MEDIA INDUSTRY IS A GIANT DNC mouthpiece. Fox is one network that is 50-60% more favorable in coverage where as liberal networks and publications is over 90 percent negative. You have 99 percent of media, the entire entertainment industry, academia, social media, etc. Conservatives cannot even compare to having the platform that the left gets.
Let's just throw some out there. See, you bitch about Fox because it's the only one who doesn't go left. Where do conservatives even start to discuss the liberal publications and networks/platforms you all use?

I can't even imagine how sheltered in the bubble you have to be to ignore this simple fact.
