Liberals skim NYT articles and Stephen Pinker books.
They don't know how to think and therefore cannot learn. The idea that reading entails actually reading multiple history books in a topic from hard-nosed scholars and from different angles of political theory is an unimaginable amount of work to them, which is what I personally think of when I say liberals don't read. Sure they're literate and do a little half-assed reading but they refuse to acknowledge their ignorance and instead think their half-assed reading is sufficient to form a good opinion.
