[Eren/D1 ]
Jura are you saying that JJA doesnt prefer the democrats? It's fine that he does. I think both parties are as bad as each other.
Shifter I'm not interested in your conspiracy theories.
Yep D1.
Dispo, I realise that you won't be here for a while, but I will respond.
You started the OP bemoaning that we all can’t come together and play to our similarities rather than our differences, and ever since have blathered on about partisanship and bias.
JJ does prefer the Democrats, that is a sane position to take seeing as Trump has led his peoples down the path of autocracy, anyone with an ounce of sense would want to back away from that precipice.
Unless!
There is growing evidence to support what many of us more rational and gifted citizens felt in our bones, that extreme ideological worldviews may be reflective of low-level perceptual and cognitive functions.
In a recent paper from the
Royal Society called
The cognitive and perceptual correlates of ideological attitudes: a data-driven approach, which used cognitive tasks, personality surveys and data driven analysis. The conclusions were.
“Conservatism and nationalism were related to greater caution in perceptual decision-making tasks and to reduced strategic information processing, while dogmatism was associated with slower evidence accumulation and impulsive tendencies. Religiosity was implicated in heightened agreeableness and risk perception. Extreme pro-group attitudes, including violence endorsement against outgroups, were linked to poorer working memory, slower perceptual strategies, and tendencies towards impulsivity and sensation-seeking.
Together these findings suggest that ideological worldviews may be reflective of low-level perceptual and cognitive functions.”
Seeing as how you seem to fit into all the above categories (highlighted), I imagine that through no fault of your own the above is just a word salad, so I will simplify it. You are a Nazi because you don’t have many working braincells, not because it is right.
