I'm noticing a lot of people taking "you should read more about this, here are some book recommendations" as insulting their intelligence.

This is relevant because most USians lack a political education.

people incorporate their liberalism or whatever into their identity and calling that into question is way bigger of a deal than it should be. You get the same thing with religious weirdos if you ever ask them where the bible says something they made up or why god seems to always agree with their own prejudices.
