It’s about catering to an audience that wants to be told things that already think are true. It’s pandering, but it’s also dangerous, because it serves to further entrench ideologies that have no qualms about committing arbitrary violence against anyone who doesn’t share their ideology; not too dissimilar to religious extremists eh?
