Honest question, did these people always think like this and Twitter just serves as a record of this stupidity or did social media make this double think worse?
Both. Stupidity is infectious, and social media encourages people to come with the most far-out takes you can. In another age and time, this guy would be having a conversation with a Republican friend, and it'd go something like this:
GOP: "You heard about the balloon? Looks like they finally shot it down. I don't understand why it took this long."
Dem: "Apparently, the military said that they were attempting to avoid damage on the ground."
GOP: "I guess that's fair. But it seems pretty absurd how they just let it cross the entire length of the US."
Dem: "Yeah, they handled it rather poorly."
