I didn't right the study, I just posted it. And there is nothing in the article that mentions the nuts on the left.

But you posted an excellent "what about" response. Not sure why though. You don't seem the Proud Boy type. ;)

You're still just rolling with anecdotal evidence and a few pictures found here and there. And the photos don't prove the political ideology of anyone in them. It's a fallacious assumption to believe anyone who opposes anything Trump is automatically left wing. Plenty of moderates and conservatives do as well.

What Felix posted was a scientific study. Y'all are just responding with random pics of a few people and going, "But, but, but... libruhls!"

Re: If a Miami fan says Florida State players are thugs,


Sep 9, 2019, 10:59 AM

Fair enough. Overall, though, what's being presented here in this thread as a response is anecdotal evidence rather than a complete study like the original link. The study didn't claim there weren't left wing folks who lacked emotional intelligence. They just found that, as a whole, those on the far right were more susceptible to lacking that intelligence and were more open to authoritarian/oppressive ideology. This isn't really that new; Johnathan Haidt proved that years ago (I've mentioned his book and studies here before). The more right you go, the more you embrace blind loyalty and authority.

From a statistical/logical perspective...


Sep 6, 2019, 10:39 AM [ in reply to Everyone knows that red states are WAY less educated ]

your statement doesn't hold a lot of merit.

For instance, just because a "red" state gets/uses more government handouts, it doesn't automatically hold that conservatives/republicans use more handouts.

It also doesn't mean that a set of voters in said state are less educated. Now, polling results show Trump voters, in general, have less higher education than Hillary voters in the last election. I'm not sure about the "WAY" part, nor is level of post-secondary education a real barometer on intelligence, especially where politics is concerned.

Might want to do a little research there my friend. California is the most populous state so your statement is a little misleading.

I'm sure you weren't using 'real info' on a per capita basis? ;)

California isn't even in the top 10 of per capita welfare spending. In fact, that list is a pretty healthy mix of red and blue states.

Sep 6, 2019, 11:50 AM

To things Trump has said and done. Again, this is trump supporters I know personally, they get their info filtered through Fox News. They don’t actually listen and form an opinion on the man for themselves.

For example, they claim Trump is a Christian who was sent by god. Yea a lot of them do that. They are oblivious to the fact that he has gone on record claiming he doesn’t need God’s forgiveness. This is just one of many examples.

They believe every accusation or negative thing against him is just an attack by the liberal media.

My experience is anecdotal sure, but it matches up with the data that says trump supporters are highly misinformed.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

These seems like a sweeping generalization.


Sep 6, 2019, 12:05 PM

Most of the people I know who support Trump do it for a few reasons:

1) They want a strong economy
2) They voted for him because they were tired of being marginalized by main stream media, Hollywood and liberal elites, leading to
3) Supporting Trump really seems to p!ss off a lot of liberals

I don't personally know anyone who supports him because they think he is "a Christian who was sent by god."

using condescending words like lower emotional intelligence proves what we already know?

republicans are more into a work for it and earn it mentality
democrats are more into a help everyone out no matter what mentality

how can i get paid to run a study to state that water is wet?

calling it emotional intelligence just makes it sound like a superiority thing.
