No, I read You carefully, but writing philosophy is different from writing social psychology, and there My bias lays, admittedly. In that sense, I am a hypocrite, again, admittedly.
Once admitted, though, I am compelled to forgive myself. Bad conscience is a not so terrible thing to waste.
No, conservatives are more likely to base decisions on risk and corruption than liberals are. You could interpret that as conservatives irrationally acting on fear, or as liberals being bad at risk assessment. The truth is likely in the middle. Again, you are interpreting the results the way it pleases you to interpret them, then declaring your interpretation to be science.
And now you’re just demonstrating that you haven’t actually read the studies you’re trumpeting on about. Not much point in discussing something with somebody who is both ignorant AND hostile. I can handle one or the other.
Well, I’m mentally competant to hold a job. Are you?
Like I said, pretending that the studies show that conservatives are just straight up inferior in their reasoning is you editorializing the reality. If you read an article about this same subject on a place like Salon or Mother Jones, it will tell you how fearful and stubborn conservatives are. If you read about it on Brietbart or Drudge Report, it will tell you how disorganized and imperceptive liberals are. In your case, I’m sure it’s just something you overheard without even knowing the bias of the source, like that time ‘a friend’ told you 1 in 3 women in the US are raped, and you spent a month telling us all you knew it was a fact.
Mmhm. A few minutes ago they were widely available studies that everybody can easily see. Now that I’ve shown you’re full of crap, it turns out you were talking about other, hidden studies that barely anybody knows about. Well, go on.
That paper is just a general description of what a mirror neuron is and what they do. It has nothing at all to do with conservatives, liberals, and most importantly, your assertion that one group of people uses mirror neurons more than another.
That’s another description of a part of the brain and what it does, that in no way defends or even addresses the claims you’ve made about conservatives and liberals.
Quote where any of the links you posted say anything even remotely like that.
You can’t, because they don’t. These are simply papers describing how parts of the brain work, and they make no claims about how anybody of any ideology process information.
Anybody who reads this thread will see you making shit up just as much as Random Factor. You both had your chance to back up your claims, you can’t. I’m out.
