It isn't that the Freeptards are ignorant...
... It's just that they know so much that isn't so.

2. They are capable of learning.

They learn new talking points almost daily. They just aren't capable to learning anything that's not based on myth, fantasy, or bigotry.

6. With the right amount of effort
I think monkies can learn new talking points almost daily.
I'm not offerring excuses for the freetards mind you, but I do believe there are many simpletons who just aren't capable of independant thought and rationalization. :+

7. They should be considered willfully ignorant. Not only are they
ignorant, they prefer to stay that way. They feel it's better to remain ignorant than to learn something that you don't want to admit.

9. You have hit the nail on the head
They have no desire to learn or discover anything that conflicts with their "world view".
