If you listen closely to Carlin arguing with a conservative {zombie}, you will discover 2 very different basic modes of making a point. The conservative states his version to be true and denies as rubbish the accusations of Carlin's 'liberal' view..... Carlin, in turn, lays out point after point demonstrating in detail what he means, then summarizes it. The conservative then makes MORE generalized denials using prefabricated talking points with almost no references that support them. It becomes asserted facts versus evasive hyperbole.
   Sadly, there are far too many who are too easily taken in by easy-to-follow hype and propaganda rather than following and researching the details of a more complex explanation.
