With the media and internet in our hands it can look like an overwhelming number of these peoples are out there. Most right leaning people I know I might consider stupid, ignorant, naive and flat out wrong sure. But I don’t know if I could say they’re detached from reality for having a different take.
The mainstream right in Canada isn't as far gone as it is in the United States, so keep that in mind during these discussions and your interactions with Canadian conservatives. Per opinion surveys, 45% of Trump voters supported storming the Capitol and 70% (!!!) think Biden's election win was fraudulent. If that's not detached from reality, what is?
