While this is a childish thread, it is 100% true that studies have shown that when you prove a conservative wrong that he is significantly more likely to continue to believe the wrong thing even after proven than a non-conservative. And in fact will likely even believe the now proven wrong thing even more.
All egotists are folk compensating for inferiority complexes. Because they are full of pride they can fall. This makes them sensitive to shame. They gave up intellectual integrity to be a part of a group because they were taught to be insecure. So if you poke them in the ego, they don't just bleed they explode. To exhibit a capacity to reason is to them like showing a red flag to a bull. Their vanity makes them envious of people who can think and, of course, very vicious. Nobody wants to be shamed and nobody wants to be stupid, but there's no stupidity greater than trying to pretend you are not when you are. They chose group stupid over independent thought and all the insults that come to people who can think. It never occurs to them that the folk who would insult them are mental pygmies.
And furthermore, when you see just how truly sad the life of a conservative is, from a mental health point of view, as well as the total impotence of their rage, you can do nothing else but what to help them. These poor traumatized little brats are our children, poor little wild animals caught in a trap. The mentally ill are of course mentally ill because they won't seek treatment.
