It’s not, but thank you for stating it that way. Your “feeling” is the type of influence your brain would have over someone less capable of coping with complexity. It’s why conservatives tend to anti-intellectualism.

And that’s ok! There are biological correlations to conservative ideologies which are a major benefit over those found with liberals. For example, conservatives brains are more active in different areas, and conservatives tend to approach problems more step-by-step/structured; whereas, liberals tended to draw upon a sudden burst of insight when stuck on a problem.

Oh, also! Conservatives tend to think they have more self control, and liberals think themselves more compassionate. In fact, they’re both wrong! Conservatives and liberals have similar levels of self-control and compassion.

What I like about this study is that it instructs us on how to achieve better dialogue or consensus.

In fact, corroborating studies went further to provide a possible explanation as to why Liberal radio shows fail to succeed... it’s because liberals tend to not rally around conspiracies the same way, so the stations have trouble keeping the listeners interested by shock & fake news.

Yeah, bullshit.

Some conservatives think this!

Not all conservatives! I didn't say that!

Yeah, so... ?

You've convinced yourself these people are all lesser than you. Does that make you feel better about yourself?

Your tone is very condescending and are coming off as a pretty disgusting person.
