I'm glad you brought this topic up. The other day I had a poster accuse me of thinking all trump supporters are dumb. Clearly there's some animosity between red and blue on here, I guess as is to be expected.
First and foremost though I gotta say that your wording is a little off, I disagree with a lot of democrats politically too. I've seen red avatars on here say climate change isn't real. Some hardcore Bernie supporters think that guy can fix everything that's wrong with the country on his own. I don't agree with either of those viewpoints. So it's not like every democrat agrees with each other, we have a lot of differences also. But I assume you mean Pubs vs Dems more than anything.
Realistically, Republicans and Democrats are probably equal in terms of intelligence. You have your blind, dumb supporters, and you have your geniuses on both sides of the isle. There are republican posters on atlas that I think are intelligent and good contributors.
That said though, there are certain issues where I feel the democrats are much stronger than republicans. I'm sure blue avatars feel the same way about some other issues. That's okay though, the whole point of a forum like this is that we can engage each other.
So if I challenge someone on a particular issue, or about a particular candidate, I might be right or I might be wrong. I might even be a little confrontational. But I don't do it to say you're evil or dumb. I just have a different perspective than you.
