Think of stupid people as basically AI. They just copy what's around them and approximate an opinion without really understanding any of it. They're just followers.

They follow along when they're surrounded by Democrats, and then they move somewhere else and they're surrounded by Republicans, and they still follow along. They don't publicly renounce their old beliefs because they haven't actually put that much thought into it. It's all surface level.
