How ordinary people come to embrace the cruelty

[Si modo]

Why is it sceince is begining to map the politcal brain and cons are not coming off very well in all the studies?

It's only "science" if the hypothesis and/or theory is falsifiable. Starting a study with a predetermined conclusion is not anything related to falsifiable - thus, not "science".

This is why the right in this country HATES education and wants it defunded and tooo expensive for most to go to college.

education threatens their world veiw

Not everyone should go to college. The world needs idiots like you. Damned if I know why, but a study I read says so.

The first thing a cult does is tell you everyone else is lying to you.

think of that the next time you watch your dose of Fox

So, Progressivism is a cult? Thought so.

Study: Conservatives happier than liberals

Researchers have found conservative UF students may be happier than their liberal peers because of personality traits.

UF psychology researchers John Chambers and Barry Schlenker studied more than 400 UF students over three years. Their research revealed conservative participants tended to exhibit greater optimism, self-esteem and feelings of control over their lives.

Scientists, who TM says are always correct, showing that conservatives are happier than liberals. Gotta love science, right TM?

 

[Conservative]

I'm sorry... did the facts scare TM out of the thread?

 

[Truthmatters]

Happy doesnt equal accepting facts

 

[Ernie S.]

what good are facts to a brain that refuses to process them and only sees them as an emotional attack?

Asks the woman who uses emotional attacks disguised as science.
A Liberal crafting a "scientific study" crafted to produce predetermined results is not science, it is fraud.

where is your proof (you know facts) that these are "liberal" studies?

All you need do is google the "scientists" involved and the institution funding it.
I can fund a study that would support a predetermined result that you are an iguana, but that doesn't make it "science".

 

[Conservative]

Happy doesnt equal accepting facts

I've posted 3 different pieces, all scientists doing studies, all conservative positive results. You yourself said scientists are always correct.

Are you now saying scientists are not always correct? Are you disagreeing with these studies, simply because they were conservative positive?

Why are you now denying the facts?

That is why your party is dying.

oops, from the title I thought this was about the rights support for torture and such.

It really is a cult they all want us to give our lives and belongings to the government via anti liberty legislation and higher taxes. Man is bad population control etc these people imo are a cult.

The differences between liberals and conservatives run wide and deep, and a new study suggests they may even be reflected in the very structure of their brains.

In the study, led by Ryota Kanai of the University College London, people who identified themselves as liberals generally had a larger anterior cingulate cortex — a comma-shaped region near the front of the brain that is involved in decision-making. By contrast, those who identified as conservatives had larger amygdalas — almond-shaped structures that are linked with emotional learning and the processing of fear.

Ironic, liberals knew this over 150 years ago...

Liberalism is trust of the people, tempered by prudence; conservatism, distrust of people, tempered by fear.
William E. Gladstone

Yeah...and study after study has shown that liberals suffer SIGNIFICANT mental illness at a rate that is 3 to 5 times higher than ANY OTHER single group as a percentage. That's including groups like aboriginals who have the highest suicide rates in the world.

And in fact, if you ask liberals...THEY know they are not right! GALLUP POLLS have actually been tracking this exact issue for years. Read it for your self.

So...accept whatever study or poll you believe supports your twisted world view, but the TRUTH is, conservatives are more educated, more successful, better adjusted and more self aware than liberals.

The claim that liberals "trust people" more than conservatives is a perfect example of the abject lunacy of that study. Conservatives believe in our Constitution and the founding principles. The FIRST and most important among those is that MAN CAN RULE HIMSELF!

THAT is the Ultimate expression of trust in man. Liberals...on the other hand don't trust ANYONE. That belief expresses it's self in their fanatical drive to grow the size and scope of government to "protect" man from himself!

So the claim which that assertion is based on is a COMPLETE fallacy that is expressed the ACTIONS of conservatives and liberals...NOT some assumptions based on theoretical sampling.

But hey, if it makes you FEEL better...go for it!

Yeah well the cons brains are structured differently.
They can't help it.

I see we have another day with no Libtards wanting to discuss the cruelty of Obama's $6 trillion in new debt being dumped on the next generation.


LOL

And the biggest contributors to our debt, Reagan and Bush, were just practicing 'compassionate conservatism'?

Here is a chart that explains the problem. Plummeting revenues due to a severe recession, Reagan/Bush tax cuts, coupled with absolutely necessary spending that goes on during a severe recession.

Study: academia really does discriminate against conservatives | The Daily Caller

It’s no secret that academia is overwhelmingly liberal; so much so that many conservative professors may feel like they are in enemy territory. But a new study suggests that conservatives may have good reason to feel uneasy. Between a quarter and a third of liberal social psychologists indicated in survey responses that they would discriminate against conservatives in hiring decisions and grant proposals.

Scientists...which TM says are always correct... say that liberals openly discriminate against conservatives.

How about THOSE scientific facts, TM?

Now how does a field that depends on the persons abiltiy to empathize with others make room for people who dont empathize with others?

Republicans Report Much Better Mental Health Than Others


self reporting.

do you understand what that means?

 

[Truthmatters]

at least you are starting to deal with science here.

Now tell me why you offhand DISMISS the studies you dont like the results of?

 

[Truthmatters]

By doing so you prove the study correct in its findings
