Thanks. Not sure how to absorb the finding… “Poor creatures were made that way. Nothing can be done.”?

Conclusion “Our results suggest that the genetic foundations of ideological traits and political attitudes are largely non-overlapping with the genetic foundations of Big Five personality traits.” Huh?
Tim Torma (@timtorma.bsky.social) reply parent
This is interesting, but can you try to translate their conclusion into “plain English” so more of us can understand their findings and the implications? I’ll paste the conclusion in my next comment.

The important thing to keep in mind when reviewing these records is Trump’s refusal to release the Epstein files. And that Congress is actively protecting a billionaire pedophile. That’s all you need to know about the MLK records.

“Chronic venous insufficiency is a condition where veins in the legs can't draw attention from the fact that the Epstein Files still haven’t been released,” one meme read. “The thing about the Redskins and Indians is that Donald Trump is on the Epstein list,” one social media user wrote.

The Department of Homeland Security put out a list of “sanctuary jurisdictions” in VA, including Martinsville County, which doesn't even exist! Per state law, there are no sanctuary cities or counties in VA. After I pointed that out, DHS deleted the list. Amateur hour.

Trump showed a picture of people moving body bags, and said “[t]hese are all white farmers that are being buried.” In fact, it was a picture from Goma in the Democratic Republic of Congo, showing workers burying bodies in a war zone. (from Heather Cox Richardson) He's a pathological liar.
