Do you think that statement is more or less true?

It's entirely true in that conservatives have explicitly been at war with reality for literal decades.

The thing is that when it comes to most facts, liberals are correct more often because they actually believe in science

the illusion that reality is somehow neutral between liberal and conservative values is ridiculous

It's correct in the sense that American "liberals" are often just right wingers and American "conservatives" are just reactionary far right extremists. So yeah, I'll say that standard conservative politicians have a more accurate world view than some loony Trump cultist.

This.

The fact that Conservapedia exists as an "alternative" to the completely neutral Wikipedia says a lot.

It's a stupid saying, but conservatives are definitely more likely to be divorced from reality in America.

Conservatives are the ones making it look that way. Science and truth have become politicized and relative. It's liberal propaganda when they aren't using a tenuous grasp of it as a club against minorities.

Entertainment definitely has a liberal bias. A conservative has to ignore themes or be a massive hypocrite to enjoy most of it.

The guy who originally made it was definitely serious about it.

It's hardly an America exclusive problem. Just look at Brexit.

It was true back before people were trying to segregate liberals and progressives and both words basically meant the same thing.

Now it's not so much. Reality ain't on the side of the "liberals" anymore. But the progressives.

Reality has a leftist bias. The "liberals" aren't left leaning enough to enjoy reality being on their side anymore. And if Biden becomes president and Trump's Supreme Court play fails, the "liberals" are in for a rude awakening over the man they voted for.

So pointing out that America is much further to the right than, say, most of our closest allies is neckbeardish now?

In the context it's usually used, it's absolutely true.

The vast majority of reports about Trump's activities would portray in him a negative light, because the vast majority of what he does is negative.

It's not meant to be taken literally, it just pokes fun at the fact that liberal views are based in science and reason and conservative ones are not.
