They're still fully retarded, full of hot air and love to use the word "problematic" to describe everything. They can't go ten minutes without bringing up how orange man is bad TO THIS DAY. Meanwhile you try to bring up any recent Biden news and it's all "oh i don't watch the news. You guys read too many articles" LITERAL QUOTE

Okay, my claim was that it's ridiculous to claim that liberals can't be intelligent. But I went on to explain my reasoning a little. So read the rest of my comment, and tell me what part of my reasoning doesn't make sense. Then I can explain my thinking.
Well I'd argue that being gullible (easily convinced of something) or brainwashed (the same lie told over and over until you believe its true) are showing the opposite of having the ability to understand something.
To me it's intellectually lazy, they don't want to learn because it goes against their personal world view.
Someone can be very intelligent, amazing at math and science and language and so on, but grow up in a bubble when it comes to politics. The only way for them to escape this, is to literally question everything they know to be truth, and not doing so is an indication of laziness, not necessarily a lack of intelligence.
Intelligent people are by no means immune to being gaslighted either (an obvious example would be in a romantic relationship). Someone can be very intelligent, but still allow their emotions to take over in certain situations.
In fact, I think we are victims to this trap of emotions when we say things like this. I mean, who doesn't get angry at how retarded people can be when it comes to politics? However, it still is not true that these people, who say very naive and shortsighted things when it comes to politics, can't be genuinely intelligent when it comes to other subjects.
Correct.
