Hard Wired Non-Conservatives

As a generalization, I have found that most educated non-conservatives' political positions are hard wired. Non-conservatives have been so engrained in the establishment big government narrative as it slow walks US citizenry to tyranny that it hasn't occurred to them to think through what is really going on. Notwithstanding many non-conservatives having been well educated they haven't tested their political beliefs against happenings in the world around them via critical thinking and debate. Accordingly, when challenged, they usually default to ridicule or dismissal, not idea exchange and dialogue.
