18. They're having a very hard time with cognition
Since the Republicans and the Corporations walk in lockstep and rubberstamp Dear Leader's policies they assume everyone does. They just can't wrap their minds around the concept that dissent does not equate to rejection. Same for the uber religious freeks. They can't see gray areas because they've eliminated all that kind of thinking. Their synapsis are frozen in jumping from one extreme to another nullifying 99% of their brain's neurological potential. Lazy thinking, in other words. Or what I like to call Hampster thinking. Just going around and around in the same spot and never deviating and never getting anywhere.
