I'm not from California, so I don't know much about her; but this genuinely surprised me, especially how vicious and vitriolic the comments were. What's going on there?

I remember when i got banned from r/conservative for asking for a source for a claim.

Don’t you know, proof is optional for the republicans?

They’re trying to impeach without proof, they’ve lied through their teeth every single day they’ve been in office. Proof doesn’t matter, and despite their favorite saying being “facts don’t care about your feelings” they don’t need facts

Actually their belief in inversely proportional to proof. The more proof you have, the less they believe it. The less proof you have, the more you believe it.

combine that with their penchant for “every accusation is a confession”

I got banned from there for posting a verbatim Trump tweet with no words of my own included. Never seen a bigger group of melting snowflakes in my life than the "facts don't care about your feelings" crowd.

Oh and like it was any different going into r/politics ya joker. Preach to your crowd, you're still surrounded by groupthink in your safe space don't worry.
