You're right. A right-winger doesn't always adopt a right-wing ideology because of low intelligence. Sometimes, they adopt right-wing views just because they're evil instead!
Now I know why you don't have any friends. People aren't low iq or evil just because they have a different opinion man.
I'm so fed up with the "different opinion" justification. "It's just my opinion" isn't a defense. Nobody said you can't have your own opinion. It's just that, often times, the content of an opinion can indicate low intelligence or evil intentions. For this nuance to be lost on you, there is something seriously fucked with your capacity to reason and comprehend words, so I'm going to assume that you full well know this shit, but you just want to be bad faith.
It's that their 'opinions' are of who should or should not have rights, for me. And the fiscally conservatives who are the exact same thing but with extra steps.
