These are excellent points and I believe most of us do not realize just how much we are influenced by rhetoric, the media, etc. Check out Sam Alaimo (I can't tag him in a comment), who writes What Then? here on Substack. He has a great cautionary post today about potential consequences of polarized rhetoric.

The majority of Republicans believe that gas prices are high because Biden stopped the drilling. Actually, US oil production is at all all time high.

When their chosen candidate is office, with same facts, high gas prices will be rationalized another way. The facts must always support the beliefs.

That's backward, the beliefs should be supported by the facts.
