How can they dare to question something they have deep belief in? Their reality, and how they "need" it to be, is "almost" inflexible (for many, it is) because they view everything in absolutes.
We've seen this philosophy from lilMike for years. One woman lies about being raped, hence all women lie about being raped. One person lies in order to get food stamps, hence all people on food stamps are liars.
The mentality of intransigence was established by and developed by the neocon mindset of Dubya and Cheney, then further intensified by the fundamentalist Christians who view their bible as the only bible. One muslim burns an American flag, hence all muslims are jihadists. One crazed evangelical burns down an abortion clinic, hence all terrorists are muslims.
Oh.
Wait.
