After trying a lot to understand Republicans and right-wingers in the US (where I'm from) I'm much less convinced it's possible now than I was when I first became politically aware twenty-ish years ago. But moreover, even if I can understand someone, I can't understand why they trust their sources of information (which seem to me patently self-serving, pandering and stupid). And when our sources are so different we can't seem to talk anything but past each other.
