bighairymike: I quoted the article because it articulated the irrational mindset very well.

So you cherry-picked information that confirmed your existing beliefs or ideas. That's confirmation bias and there seems to be a lot of that here.

And it wasn't a news 'article,' it was an op-ed.

And it wasn't a study, it was a survey, a self-reporting opinion poll. It says nothing at all about anyone's actual mental well-being but simply their self-perception of their mental wellness. Someone can be crazy as a loon and insist their mental fitness is head and shoulders above everyone else ('Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV.')

As far as liberals advocating for irrational ideas like hiding school agendas from parents, reparations, defund the cops, and pronoun nonsense... well, that may be your existing belief but that doesn't make it reality. My own classes and classwork I saw as a parent always included a detailed syllabus, nothing was hidden. Among Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents, 48% say descendants of enslaved people should be repaid in some way, while 49% say they shouldn't be repaid (which breaks down further by race with 18% of white democrats saying 'yes' and 77%of African American democrats saying 'yes').

Less than 25% of democrats say police funding should be decreased (decreased, not defunded... virtually no one wants police defunded).

And whining about 'pronouns' is a silly distraction that says more about an individual's age than anything else.
