left-wing people somehow hate science and the truth

Anyone browsing the internet sees a hundred examples of this every day. Note: That's called exaggeration. Maybe it's only 20 or 30, but it's enough that even you would run across them.

Thousands of lies from the Trump admin will never compare with anything on the left.

The phenomenon of TDS is both amazing, and tacit proof that there is no 'hope' for our species. Half of the country thought Trump was Hitler, and the other half took the hate of the first half as reason to support him. TDS apparently has profound effects on the vision and processing centers in the brain that allow one to perceive reality.

It must be difficult to have a normal conversation with people who [normie]

It is. I've never been to Disneyland or a similar place, but have read about their techniques for creating a credible fantasy experience in their targets (customers). The media environment is very much like that, and most people IRL around here buy it completely. CNN told them. Newsweek and [company name] sold them the same pitch. It's reinforced in that unrelated article in the CostCo magazine. Reddit/twatter/faceberg/etc delete any mention of a counternarrative. "See, science agrees!"

The reality is that the lower 80% across the whole political spectrum are "not bright", and are very easily manipulated into fulfilling the purposes of their 'owner-operators'. Look at the results, not the stories and claims and promises and outright lies of those running the show.

PS: Don't use television comedians as a news source.

(Per the thread) Anti-science propaganda is primarily - if not entirely - right-wing disinformation or misinformation

(And you do not know who I am or how smart the "lower 80%" are)

You just have confirmation bias and don't see it when your side does it. That's all.

The left constantly go against whats been proven in social sciences and psychological studies when it goes against their ideology. That's why they can't fix any of the social problems they claim to care more about than the right.

This is itself an opinion about opinions (ala Fox News &c), rather than an assessment of the core differences in the approaches of the 'left' and 'right'

Here's some IQ distribution science! As for your practice of labeling anything that doesn't conform to the beliefs they installed in you as "right-wing disinformation", that's not very sciency.

I cannot find the

national longitudinal survey of labor market experience of youth 1980-1990

or

Johnny Johnson

The IQ distribution might reflect circumstances of "youth" in a certain area or profession. IQ is not the only measure of intelligence. Thus this example may be accurate and 'scientific', but this is also part of the field of 'social science'. It also bears no relation to the present thread about anti-science and the left or right.

And the right-wing disinformation campaign is not as much scientific as it is social, or also a social science.

I tried listening to it just now, and I gave it a vote, but I've never managed to listen much of his material, mainly because he and commentators like him give the false impression that both political parties are very similar, or they are polar opposites (whereas there are important differences and some common ground). His approaches to the evidence are also annoying, where he continues to force only one narrative, with the tone of 'here's an example', 'here's another example' and continued ranting with affirmations of his points. It's what's wrong with political discourse in general for those who want to polarize the issues in order to get attention, clicks and views. It's a business rather than a genuine study of the issues. I often like the Sunday morning round-table discussions of politics on 3 MSM TV stations, where they try to mix points of view.
