Conservatives are “dying at a significantly higher rate than liberals” due to science mistrust

[Oddball]

LOL It is the "Conservatives", not the conservatives, who reject science. Most "Conservatives" have never taken a single university level science class, yet think that they know more about science than scientists that have spent decades studying their discipline. And the MAGAts do not read peer reviewed scientific journals, nor even the PNAS articles.

I know what science is, jackass...You warmer moonbats don't have a phoquing shred of it.

 

[Andylusion]

You criticize my post while being silent about your orange god's post.

Please cite this claim. In our exchange I never claimed moral superiority to anyone. This is a blatant lie or pure utter laziness. Which one?

Ever since he posted it, I use the comment regularly. Almost no one at all on here called him out for it and its documented that you didnt.. hypocrisy stands tall here for you.

I'll see you at the gates. I will be one of your accusers. I know you carried Trump's water on here because you feel it furthers your preferred agenda. That is a cheap cost for your soul. Jesus cant help you because you didnt love him. If you did you would act differently.

Trump is bad. Conservatives are loons who have denied science and are dying because of it. Proof is in the OP.

"You criticize my post while being silent about your orange god's post."

"But my morals come from Jesus Christ the Lord, not from some flawed man."

Can you read that?

Can you read that?
Do you not understand the statement and implications thereof?

"Ever since he posted it, I use the comment regularly. Almost no one at all on here called him out for it and its documented that you didnt.. hypocrisy stands tall here for you."

Why are you asking me to comment on something I never said, and never supported?

"Trump is bad. Conservatives are loons who have denied science and are dying because of it. Proof is in the OP."

Not as bad as someone who calls him bad, and then justifies their own actions by citing someone they say is bad.
You made a moral judgement about yourself, when you say Trump is bad. And then you hypocritically do the same thing he does, and justify what you do, by citing him.

That makes you worse than him.

Again, I'd rather die a righteous man, than someone who claims others are bad, and then act just like those bad people, while citing those bad people as justification for my actions..... like you have done here.

 

[Oddball]

They were and still are, TRAITORS.
Just like your dear leader.

THE most anticipated obituary in the US, if not the world, will be your lying, treasonous, corrupt and incompetent dear leader.
I hope they bury the sorry POS, on the last tee box on the 18th hole of his golf course in N.J.

Try the decaf, deranged moonbat.

The GQP went all-in with conspiracy theories that medicine was dangerous, doctors are corrupt and stupid, and vaccines are bad. It has produced results that are bad for them, arguably good for America though.

Your politics could be making you ill, and conservatives are dying at significantly higher rates than liberals, according to a recent study in Nature.

Over the past decade, a health gap has emerged in the United States. While extensive research has examined how factors like income and education shape health outcomes, political ideology has largely been overlooked—until now.

A paper published last month analyzed individual health data from a long-term study of a large, representative sample of Americans across all 50 states.

“2010 is the last year in which we can say fairly clearly that there is not this gap,” Elizabeth Elder, a coauthor of the study, tells Fast Company. “By 2020 we have pretty clear evidence of a gap in which conservatives are less healthy than liberals.”

By 2016, the gap had begun to appear in biomarker measures. By 2020, it was showing up in deaths from causes such as heart disease, cancer, and stroke. Since then, the gap has only widened. Between 2020 and 2022, only 0.2% of “very liberal” respondents died of internal causes, compared with 1.34% of “very conservative” respondents.

File this under “Survival of the Fittest “. Alternatively, Culling of the retard herds…

Total garbage propaganda from a leftwing slop house.

It even admits there is zero scientific data to back the claim up, but that doesn’t stop them from making it anyway. LOL.

Good luck with your 10th Covid booster.

The fact you idiots are STILL doubling down on WuFlu shots when everyone knows they aren’t safe and aren’t effect just goes to show how brainwashed you all are.

 

[ThunderKiss1965]

We know mRNA vaccines are safe because they have been administered billions of times and undergo rigorous, continuous monitoring by health agencies like the FDA and the CDC. Clinical trial participants…representing tens of thousands of people across diverse demographics…must show excellent safety records before any vaccine is authorized or approved.

The COVID vaccines moved fast mostly because the government removed financial and bureaucratic delays, not because the basic safety steps were skipped. Companies could run steps in parallel, manufacture doses before final approval, enroll trials quickly because COVID was widespread, and regulators reviewed data in real time instead of waiting for one giant final packet.

So you are saying that all mRNA vaccines are the same ? I got some bridges I think you would be interested in.

Stick to the diet kool-aide, bootlicker...............

 

[Nuthin' Fancy]

So if its alive why doesn't it have life?

Because it hasn't taken its first breath.
It's only alive via an umbilical cord.

Your view has a lot of similarity to pretzels.

 

[Papageorgio]

I don't know how a shorter, unhealthier life is happier. It's hard to reconcile these "happiness" surveys with reality. Especially when the paper you're quoting comes from a far right think tank.

I find the idea of living a short, unhealthy life to be the antithesis of "happiness". Nothing induces unhappiness more than poor health.

Given that conservatives are far more religious than leftists, I am reminded that religion is the opiate of the masses. People are brainwashed into thinking that suffering on earth will ensure their place in heaven. This is how the Church kept the peasants in line in the middle ages - by convincing them that their suffering on earth would be rewarded in heaven, if they lived good lives.

Conservatives are happier because they live in a fantasy world where everything is fine and they're fine, and there are no problems to solve.

I don’t know how they came up with the answers to their research but I have never allowed à preisdent to dictate my life, driven me to protest, because of that I have no drama in my life, I don’t smoke, take any medication, have a drink once every six months, maybe. I don’t stress over things I can’t control, I don’t care what other people pay for coffee, I don’t call presidents names, I don’t cry or really care if my candidate loses, it’s life and I don’t worry about it. I don’t demand that people that don’t take a vaccine not be treated, I won’t end a friendship over politics, Your opinion of religion is just that, and I don’t mind believing in a God, that you don’t is not my business nor do I care, why do you care how I believe?

Government loves their peasants and love feeding them crumbs while the fat man dances. Government at least here rewards doing nothing and punishes hard workers. And when Democrats have House, Senate and Presidency do they lift up the poor, do they cut taxes on the rich, do they mandate healthcare on the working middle class and give businesses and extra year to comply? They sure do. Government is the real opium, never had I have a religion to tell me to be lazy, don’t work, depend on government, I have had politicians say that over and over. Republicans and Democrats are worthless and corrupt. They proved it over and over yet the masses believe in their opium.

 

[Captain Caveman]

Celebrating the death of political adversaries is good now. Where have you been? I searched your history. You did not condemn this comment from my research and still support the "evil person who considers the death of other people to be a benefit".

He just threatened to kill everyone in Iran as well.

TDS post #8, it's getting slack around here.

 

[August West]

There are also religious groups who are anti - healthcare. Amish, for instance, but their lifestyle actually helps them live longer and healthier. Lots of factors make the topic complex.

PS as a liberal we do all the healthy things, thus this old man could outwork most of you. lol

I wouldn`t be surprised if some of the nuns who taught me in the 60s are still alive.

 

[buckeye]

No Kidding.

But when you're alive, you have life, no matter the source of your oxygen.

Are people with emphysema alive? Their source of oxygen is a tank they have to drag around.

Leftists make up rules to satisfy their beliefs. Facts have no part in that.

Disagree.

No, you had a life once.

I'm not religious but this stuck with me for as long as I can remember.

[Dragonlady]

So catastrophies just started 50 years ago? Wow, you do know the entire earth was flooded at one time?

Throwing out stupid responses to deflect from the increases in both the number of named storms and the intensity of horse storms.

50 years ago we started tracking the costs of climate catastrophes and the number of these events and their intensity has increased annually. Also the cost to the economy has increased.

You falsely assume that I am not a religious person. I'm an elder in the Presbyterian Church of Canada, and sat on the Session of my Toronto congregation. I headed the children's programs at my church and taught Sunday School. But I do not, under any circumstances, want my church or my faith, or anybody else's, entangled with my government or my public schools.

I live in a country where we throw the government out of office if they screw us over, we don't re-elect them and give them immunity from prosecution. When Brian Mulroney signed the NAFTA Deal, and then passed an 8% federal Goods and Service Tax on nearly EVERY transaction in Canada, Canadians eliminated the Progressive Party of Canada in response. The PC's went from 184 seats and a majority in the House of Commons, to 2 seats, losing official party status, offices in the Parliament Buildings. The party no longer exists.

We did the same thing to the Liberal Party after the patronage scandal in 2006, but the Liberals only lost 30 seats, and weren't completely destroyed, but they were out of office for 10 years.

 

[buckeye]

Disagree.

When you're alive, you can not have life? How does that work?

No, you had a life once.

So people with emphysema do not have life?

I'm not religious but this stuck with me for as long as I can remember.

And people with emphysema don't breathe???

Leftists believe the weirdest things to confirm the baloney they believe. Kind of like cult members.

You told me nuthin. You believe contrary and nonsensical bull shit with all your heart. Cults are like that, nuthin.

And you're in one. Amazing what you find when you scratch so many leftists.

You find nuthin.
