        Well, I do know for a fact that conservatives are (a) less educated, and (b) MRIs show diminished anterior cingulate cortex and enlarged amygdalas, which translates to lacking pattern recognition and dissonance while being hypersensitive to fear and disgust, so…

        Can’t expect much logic from that starting point…

          There’s functionally no difference between an American conservative and an American liberal save their universally-corrupt lobbyist masters, the pet interests they claim to support, and the color of their ties. You describe yourself as you slander them, not that I expect you to be willing to wrap your maladapted meat around that concept.

          Unless, of course, that whole spew of irrelevant garbage was meant to liken me to a conservative-- in which case, you answer my question in the positive. False equivalencies, falser dichotomies, and braindead ‘discourse’ is all your kind is good for anymore.

            That’s neat conjecture and botherism and all, but I’m citing facts. You’re just speculating.

              Hardly. Between the Steele Dossier and the Pandora Papers, every single crooked motherfucker in the American government could have been exposed a long time ago. People like you just don’t want to hear it. Another sleeper filtering everything they don’t want to hear.

        They only think in binary choices. Us versus them. They want the false dichotomy because it’s easier. The thought that both sides are bad can’t even enter the conversation.
