What they do is take pride in a myth. They believe the Democratic party, liberals, are for the good of all people. They feel good about themselves because of it. And they blindly support it which -makes them part and parcel of the corruptive captivity in those cities.

Yes there are a large number of old Democrats like my uncle who are in increasingly amount of denial about the true nature of the party that he grew up with. I always wondered how my dad turned out so conservative while his brother is a "vote blue no matter who" type, I figure it's because dad was never a union worker while his brother always was. Grandpa died too early for me to know exactly what his leanings were. Same with my maternal grandpa, he was a WWII vet and I don't know if he would have been proud of me for standing my ground against the scamdemic or would he have fallen for it himself.
