Reply #8: for the same reason we like to look at the Freeper site [View All]

we are alien to each other, and find the other side fascinating

I like to read RW sites, because I think it's better that we know what they are thinking and doing at all times....it is really not in our best interest to stay in a liberal bubble on DU and just read Lefty blogs, websites, et. We should be aware of their mindset, because their mindsets and frames of references affect us, like it or not.

Sometimes at work, when I am supposed to be working (I pretend to work, they pretend to pay me) I will start following RW links, just following them and following them....have ended up in some very scary places, but it is still interesting. I think they find us just as alien-scary-fascinating as we find them.
