Honestly most of the hypocrisy is just the gang warfare we've backed ourselves into, "can't go against The Party™" so when they say some dumb bullshit everyone "has" to pick a side based on who said it instead if individually deciding what they believe for themselves.

Also a large chunk is frankly barely informed. I know some people who "support voter ID," and supposedly support the SAVE act, but then you dig into it and find out they support using a State ID (like most people) and when you tell them what the save act is they do see it as overreach, but all they'd known was some R they trust said it "was for 'voter ID'" and then their brain fills in what they take to mean "voter ID" in place of what SAVE actually is, so then they "support" something they're actually against.

It's not great.
