Conservatives

[Evangelical]

"All people are born alike - except Republicans and Democrats," quipped Groucho Marx, and in fact it turns out that personality differences between liberals and conservatives are evident in early childhood. In 1969, Berkeley professors Jack and Jeanne Block embarked on a study of childhood personality, asking nursery school teachers to rate children's temperaments. They weren't even thinking about political orientation.

Twenty years later, they decided to compare the subjects' childhood personalities with their political preferences as adults. They found arresting patterns. As kids, liberals had developed close relationships with peers and were rated by their teachers as self-reliant, energetic, impulsive, and resilient. People who were conservative at age 23 had been described by their teachers as easily victimized, easily offended, indecisive, fearful, rigid, inhibited, and vulnerable at age 3. The reason for the difference, the Blocks hypothesized, was that insecure kids most needed the reassurance of tradition and authority, and they found it in conservative politics.

Psychology Today Magazine, Jan/Feb 2007

So what do you say about all the Christian Conservatives whose women as well as men are allowed to cry, constantly embrace each other, sing with each other, and worship together in church, go to dinners, and usually marry each other, usually for life.

Maybe the reason teachers described their students as victimized and easily offended is because the atheistic, liberal school system is precisely that, offensive.

The Blocks proved they know nothing about Christian life, and that Berkeley was as much a pile of shit for research 20 years ago as it is now.

That study was posted here a while back. As I recall, there was quite a little temper tantrum that broke out...therefore causing the ultimate irony of validating the study by obnoxiously attacking it.

Wouldn't this just equally support the hypothesis:

"When confronted with a pile of steaming dog shit left by liberals, conservatives rationality and logic offended, they set fire to said pile."

You call it a temper tantrum, we call it a gag reflex.

Fascism is solely, wholly, thoroughly and utterly a schism of leftism... it's socialism light.

Thus Fascism, like its marginally more offensive nieghboring schism: Socialism, is the very antithesis of the American... OKA: A Conservative.

This is a rather crude abuse of political economy. Fascism and socialism are rather distinct from each other, and in many cases, are outright conflicting ideologies.

False... the only distinction is the fascist use of nationalism as a point of loyalty... where the Socialist is loyal only to Socialism itself...

Perhaps the most illustrative indication of their numerous divergences is your inability to offer a rebuttal to the points I made regarding their clear differences.

Again dipstick, you've not pointed to ANY ACTUAL distinction or divergence or dissimilarity... ALL you've spoken to the the THEORETICAL NOTIONS OF WHAT SOME ACADEMIC IDIOT "FEELS" THE DISTINCTIONS MIGHT BE... IF such ideologies could be put into practice as these idiots feel they SHOULD... which they WILL NOT, because THEY CANNOT.

Point of order... Let the record reflect that Ag-whats-her-name is now working under the nom de ger, Nemisis...

As with so many other things, this centers around your inaccurate misidentification of state capitalism as "socialism." Abandon that fallacy! It does you a disservice if you seek legitimate argument.

The point is that the research is wholly flawed and has no substance. I know plenty of die hard conservative men who are flat out Christian and you couldn't find a more impeccable character.

Are you telling me they are conservative because they are a bunch of angry anti-social brats in high school?

You're a fool to believe such crap.

In fact, though I've never gone myself nor would I ever want to, everyone I ask about New York City says the people there are terrible pieces of shit.

The people in New York City are rude, abrupt, and insulting.

Conversely if you go to any Southern town you'll probably be welcomed with a meal at some kindly stranger's house.

Why I remember when I was in Kentucky visiting a girl of mine, being invited over by a complete stranger from a hotel I was at, to have dinner with his family.

Let's see.

New York City, Liberal. Full of douchebags.

Kentucky, fairly Conservative, full of nice old hillbillies.

There I just refuted your bullshit argument.

Yes Agnapostate had quite a few sock puppets over on Political Forum too.
he/she/it has been permabanned over there.

Please read the point of our discussion instead of engaging in this nonsensical rambling. Firstly, I don't care the least bit about your anecdotal "evidence." The widely varying spectrum of human actions and behaviors ensures that no "experience" can reply to such a thoroughly heterogenous population. Secondly, as far as I'm concerned, liberals are greater opponents of mine than conservatives are, as I'm a socialist. Liberals are actually able to fine-tune capitalism and appease worker militancy; the collapse of capitalism that would eventually be ensured by rightist economic policies is entirely in my favor.

Don't listen to this clown; he's accused several people of being sock puppets. From what's been told to me, he did the same thing to LiveUninhibited, who's explained to me that he was also registered on Political Forum.

It's spelt heterogeneous. I just corrected you like a liberal would, because that's about all that's worth retorting to your pointless post.

 

[Agnapostate]

"Heterogenous" is considered to be a valid alternative spelling. "Spelt," conversely, is rather archaic.

No, you see, heterogenous and heterogeneous are two different words. The former is specific to biology such as an heterogenous allele, heterogeneous refers to a group such as that of persons.

Now I see why libtards do this all the time, it can be fun.

That is a factually inaccurate claim. The term "heterogenous" is indeed used in the genetic sense, but is also considered a valid alternative spelling for "heterogeneous."

I'm still amused by the fact that you've not even been paying attention to the progression of the discussion, of course, namely the extensive rebuttal of Pubicus.

The Oxford Dictionary is wrong, whoever told you whatever you know, must be correct.

There is no rebuttal, the fact is that I know too many conservatives who are nicer than liberals (the South compared to the North East or California).

I don't hear anyone ever praise Boston hospitality...

Thus you lose the argument.

I did not claim that the Oxford Dictionary was wrong, because I did not claim that the spelling "heterogeneous" was inaccurate. Rather, I claimed that "heterogenous" is accepted as a valid alternative spelling. A quick check reveals that the Oxford Dictionary does not dispute this. Moreover, according to Merriam-Webster, "heterogenous" is indeed a valid alternative spelling of "heterogeneous."

There is no rebuttal, the fact is that I know too many conservatives who are nicer than liberals (the South compared to the North East or California).

That is not an argument of any sort, and is merely based on anecdotal speculation. I have already described the failure of this nature of "evidence" to you, and unsurprisingly, you did not care to defend it. Regardless, I have little interest in this study, and I was merely correcting the abuses of political economy committed by PubicusInfantilium.

 

[Agnapostate]

Incidentally, "PW@NDZAWRS" is absolute nonsense. Since "pwn" is a corruption of "own," the accurate term to use is "pwned." "Pwand" is merely a sign that someone knows very little about Netspeak.

ROFL... Oh I hear ya Ag... Except State capitalism is what Communist DO... thus it's communism; which is socialism. Ya see sis, no matter how ya slice it, SOMEWHERE up the chain there's a market, and at the market, people exchanges good and services the to mutual benefit of both parties... and while the socialist may prohibit such, within their little slice of secular heaven, to the extent that they're able, the products produced by those slaves will be sold on that broader market...

Which serves reason, given that Capitalism is, in the final analysis, the natural order of economics; which is to say, capitalism is 'nature's way...'

 

[Yukon]

Conservatives are devoid of new and advanced ideas. They cling to disproven economic theories such as "trickle-down economics", and "voodoo econmics" which no matter how you look at it is nothing more than the rantings of Ronnie Reagan - the failed god of the right-wing. Conservatives worship on the Christian alter of "forgiveness" yet they foam at the mouth at the mere thought of a condemed man being granted mercy. They rally against abortion yet refuse to help single-mothers financially. Guns are the tools of the right-wing fanatics "kill them, kill them" is the rallying cry.

Oh ye men of hypocricy I do pity you for you shall pay dearly when the Holy Father judges you.
