They actually are that unhinged, and have been for awhile...

There was a time EVERYONE was like this, back in the 50's or so they did a bunch of experiments and found people who were poorer were dumber, more violent, prone to crime, and more likely to have mental issues...

So they concluded that people fell into poverty because of personal failings.

Funny thing about Science, you can have all the right data and still get the wrong answer. Most commonly you get cause and effect backwards.

These people weren't poor because they were violent and stupid, they had merely been reduced to a state of being violent and stupid because of the horrible things their poverty exposed them to.

Conservatives never got the memo, and those that did, ignored it.
