1. Cults shut out information that contradicts their message.

The GOP "ride with racism" has a long history, probably since the "southern strategy" days, all downhill, because downhill is the path of least effort, and hasn't hit bottom yet.

Hence the decades-long gripe with "liberal media" and their cult news sinkhole response.

Demographics and thought are moving against them and they are in full denial/blow-it-all-up-mode. To the extent that the "religious right wing" preaches apocalypse, it's a sorry bubble.
