Was there ever any doubt? I mean, look at the way the Republicans think ... when one of their own shoots another one of their own: they blame the shooting on the Democrats! Like they say, "You Can't Fix Stupid." ==========================

I think there are more than two wings. Free enterprise, free speech, small business, human rights etc. are things i cherish. Certainly not left but not associated with lunatics like Trump, Farage, Orbin et al so there must be another wing. Is it Greg Wing?

Other than some AI derived image, there is no evidence of either statement. This seems to be a case of shadow projection ... when does this irrational behaviour stop.

There was a study that implies ppl of higher intelligence and we are talking IQ tend to have more left wing alignment i.e. tend see the need to socially provide healthcare etc. Not adopt some mindless Stalin persona with ice picks. Seriously some of response suggests a tribalistic violent tendency

Let's assume it's true. How does this help literally anything?

Maybe an incentive to investing more in education.

If it's genetic, education won't change anything. If it's genetic, we either have to accept and tolerate stupidity, or go all-in on eugenics. It's not genetic.

Also don't think it's genetic but I'm all for investing in (more) education, no matter what sets it in motion.

Rox @rox360.bsky.social

I am as well, and "can't fix stupid" does not incentivize education. This does not help with that one bit.

True, it can be epi-genetic too but some environments don't nurture that Continued education, further education including trades, needs to be continued while the brain grows up to age 21yo After that more engagement with novel learning keeps the brain and mind healthy and agile for critical thinkin

So...Republicans are DEVOLVING on the evolutionary scale? Sounds accurate. They're pretty 'primal'

They're not stupid; they're profiting by spewing hate. It's cold, calculated, premeditated, and inhuman.

Not stupid…calculating. I said yesterday; if shooter was identified as RW it would be turned around to blame it on the Left. Wow…nailed it again. Hate when I’m correct… Let’s see how long it takes for the fact this shooter was RW for the entire situation to be turned into “He was a Leftist”…

Except in this case the internet broadcast a fake photo of the guy wearing a MAGA tee shirt, when the real photo had nothing and was a completely different color. we must stamp out all LIES even when they are promoted by our side.

Correlating intelligence with genetics seems VERY right-wing IMHO. I mean, sure, a chimp is smarter than a tortoise, but among human beings other factors have a role to play.

At the end of the day while there may be a disparity in intelligence, the true driving factor in America's political division has more to do with philosophy.

Idgaf how well researched it is, we should NOT fall into the trap of "some people are smarter by genetic default."
