My question is...why does this matter? Why does this need to be explicitly confirmed or denied? Should a person at home in their own bed in the middle of the night NOT be in their underwear?

Misperceiving Bullshit as Profound Is Associated with Favorable Views of Cruz, Rubio, Trump and Conservatism (Stefan Pfattheicher, 2016)

This is partially explained by the fact that the most widely shared falsehoods tend to promote conservative positions, while corresponding truths typically favor liberals (Garret and Bond, 2021)
