Why is conservative the baseline? Why is their fearful outlook on life not rather considered a result of an abnormally enlarged amygdala?

>>15937539
Nah, jannies are around, I've brought down many troll threads and racist bullshit lately

>>15937158
So liberals have literally less developed part of their brain. That explains a lot

>>15937938
>their fearful outlook
every leftist I'veever met is consumed by anxiety, fear, and self loathing.

>>15938249
Probably because if your amygdala is underdeveloped, threat signals have free rein to proceed and embed into the prefrontal cortex rather than be filtered out. Therefore perceived threats manifest as internalized, intellectualized neuroses in the prefrontal cortex rather than the amygdala stepping in earlier and telling your brain, “disregard stimuli, it’s coming from a fag, engage fight mode”. This will inevitably lead to the prefrontal cortex telling you that you need to ruminate and kvetch over this poorly processed signal for the rest of time.

Probably because leftists smoke more weed.

>less capable of contemplating the potential consequences of their actions
Given how conservatives have acted the last 7 years I find this difficult to believe.

>>15937158
So... Liberals' actions aren't driven by impulsive, animalistic emotions like fear.
I guess that makes sense. If you switch to any conservative media, 95% of it is just fear mongering. It's just this on repeat; "muh libs! muh commies! muh blacks! muh queers! muh jooz! muh gubmint! muh science! they comin' a get ya!" ad infinitum.

It was evolutionarily advantageous, yes. Not so much in modern society. In a way, liberals can be seen as the next step in evolution.

>>15939360

>A dysgenic step due to removal/reduction of selective pressures.
That's circular reasoning. Are certain finches dysgenic compared to others because they no longer eat the same seeds? No, they are simply adapted to their new environment. The future of mankind is cooperation, and the smaller, tribal humans will be outnumbered.

>>15939360
>liberals can be seen as the next step in evolution.
about that...

>>15939560
Conservatives have been known to raise liberal children, though. I guess Lysenko was right.

where did this meme that leftists aren't afraid of things come from? i could rattle off a dozen things they're irrationally terrified of off the top of my head - police, organized christianity, white men, getting mass shooting'd by an ar15 at the mall, climate change, maga hats, bro trucks, jason aldean and oliver anthony songs, fascists/racists/transphobes/etc behind every blade of grass, the list goes on and on

>>15939601
Right, liberals are afraid of reasonable things like people who want them dead, not things like melanin, or men kissing, or rainbows

>>15939015
>projection

>>15939645
Yes, it is. We all know he's proudly racist, so to claim that actually, it's the liberals who hate him (???) can only be projection.

>>15939015
Why wouldn't you hate black people though?

>>15937158
now compare it with wild and domesticated animal like wold and dog.

>>15939568
No? Ideology of children correlates with ideology of parents for both liberals and conservatives.

>>15939606
brown immigrants are more likely to commit murder than white men

>>15939751
also more people get struck by lightening every year than killed by cops while unarmed

>>15939751
>>15939752
Yet, if you're a black man in Hicktown, USA, what's your biggest threat? A white cop.

>>15939758
factually inaccurate, hence why i said "irrationally terrified." thank you for supporting my post though, your brainwashed obliviousness adds a nice touch of irony

>>15939752
>from 2006 to 2021 444 deaths from lightning (88 per year)
>2019 around 142 deaths from cops while unarmed

>>15939763
you can notice I said "struck" not killed.
Even comparing deaths, in 2022 there 19 killed by a lighting and 27 killed by cops while unarmed. So yeah it is lower but it's not some day and night difference. Certainly doesn't justify the irrational fear lefties have towards cops.

>>15939762
>factually inaccurate
No, you think you can just go "beep boop statistics national averages" but you are unable to differentiate between the experiences of different demographics and you severely lack empathy.

>>15939767
How many people were struck by cops?

>>15937158
It should be noted that this study didn't replicate.
Which makes sense as neither side is particularly more fearful than the other they just fear different things.
With right-wingers it's immigrants and vaxxines. With leftists it's climate change and guns

>>15939770

Where do you have this from btw? There were 41 unarmed deaths in 2019. No year on record has this much unarmed deaths.

https://www.statista.com/statistics/585140/people-shot-to-death-by-us-police-by-weapon-carried-2016/

>>15939776
but I disagree with this one

>>15939758
Sure and if you are in a cage with a lion your biggest threat is a lion. So what?
When you are black and there are no blacks around you the biggest threat to you is second deadliest thing on the list.

>>15939783
>Sure and if you are in a cage with a lion your biggest threat is a lion. So what?
Well, it would be ludicrous to say that the entire nation should be scared of lions, but for me, I think it would be quite rational to be scared of a lion in that case. You see how context can provide nuance to statistics?

>>15939777
also important to note with "unarmed killed by cop" stats is that many times the perp is either in the process of arming themselves (reaching for the cops gun) or wielding some other not-technically-a-weapon deadly instrument (for example, driving a car at a cop is considered "unarmed"). typically the number of truly unarmed dindu nuffin police victims is single digits, in a country of millions of people with tens of millions of police interactions

>>15939793
If the police can kill you for being armed then you don't have the right to bear arms

>>15939790
Sure bro, if you are that one unfortunate nigga stuck in Hicktown, USA go fear white cops. We're not talking about individuals in highly specific circumstances we are talking about whether liberals are justified to fear cops.

>>15939799
Well, they are, because cops dislike liberals

>>15939801
>Well, they are, because cops dislike liberals

>>15939802
Just because cops are nice to you that doesn't mean your experience is universal

>>15939430
>No, they are simply adapted to their new environment.
Humans can change their own environment. I'm arguing that liberalism seeks to create the conditions of its own demise.
Liberalism is probably advantageous when you look only one step ahead. White liberals obtained power by siding with minorities.
Looking two steps ahead, however, liberalism is dysgenic because it seeks to create an environment in which it is a strictly dominated strategy (game theory term).
It has only been able to thrive in the short term because minority groups were too small to cause problems with their tribalism and there was a common enemy keeping things unified.
>and the smaller, tribal humans will be outnumbered
Whites are the only ones not being tribal. Liberalism seems like it was just an attempt to erode the tribalism of whites while every other group kept going with the tribalism arms race. If you think whites will be a protected minority under POC rule the way POC were protected under white rule then you are retarded.

I think the main disagreement is the time scales we are using to assess fitness. Things can look good/bad in the short term but turn out to be bad/good in the long term.

>>15937158
This is nonsense, if liberals couldnt feel fear then they would never move away from a brown shithole simply because "the crime is really bad".

>>15938109
No that explains nothing really, leftism is based on pathological altruism. We have humans with naturally defective amygdalas right now, they are called PSYCHOPATHS aka humans who cannot empathize with others nor conceptualize altruism, therefore this amgydala explanation for progressive behavior is pure hogwash. A human with a malfunctioning amgydala is incapable of being kind yet progressive base their entire life on how much of a hero they are to the "marginalized".

>>15938113
This cant be true, the biggest diversity supporters have nearly mono white social circles.

>>15939674
I don't believe in rehabilitative justice because the majority of people cannot feel true remorse

>>15939797

that's what makes them psycho/sociopathic actually, their "altruism" is entirely feigned and used as window dressing for their true motivation, which is simply to punish the rich/white people/men/whichever group they can frame as the oppressor. basically weaponized ""empathy""

>>15938249
Actually they don't have the amygdala to support that kind of fear

>>15939214

>>15940567

Statistics reflects reality. Niggers should be afraid of other niggers murdering and robbing them. Not cops.

>>15939846
There is no contradiction there, their mono-racial friend circle help them cultivate their various delusions.

>>15940581
Making billions of dollars by ferrying immigrants across the Mediterranean is not empathy. Preaching that the plebs should embrace diversity while you live in a gated community and your children go to a homogeneous private school is not empathy. Browbeating, bullying and ganging on people you dislike on twitter is not empathy. Cancelling and unpersonning your perceived enemies is not empathy.

In fact, all of these are examples of greed and sociopathy or both. In short, virtue signalling is not empathy.

>>15938614
A larger amygdala does not mean that you feel fear more often or more intensely, but that you dedicate more resources to it.

>>15939773
>With leftists it's climate change and guns
That's nonsense, they know these issues give them power over their political opposition

>>15940590
According to statistics, you are more likely to be killed by a cow than a shark. But that would, of course, be different if people routinely went into shark tanks to try to milk them. Gang violence is a problem, yes, but the people involved in that know what they're getting into. But cops can strike anyone.

>>15940607
Actually, the people in gated communities are the ones who are telling you to hate immigrants for taking your job, whilst they get to employ immigrants under terrible work conditions because they have no standing.
>Browbeating, bullying and ganging on people you dislike on twitter is not empathy.
Sorry, do you realise where you are? Or is this the open sociopathy on display? Is your argument actually that liberals are, at worst, as bad as you?

>>15940612
Why is it that conservatives can never conceive of people genuinely disagreeing with them? Why is it always a secret ploy to gain power somehow? Speaking of a lack of empathy.

People are literally forced to deal with gangs. The consequances of them existing creates problems in people's every day life you could not even imagine. When your entire neighbourhood is a shooting range and gangs influances your youth you're dealing with them on a daily basis. This is the reality for black people. Gangs kill innocent people on a factor of 100 in comparison to cops. Imagine actually trying to claim fucking cops are worse for the average man than literal gangs. How absolutely fucking brainwashed can you be?

And of course for getting together to gang up, bully, stalk, and make people's lives hell for the crime of wrongthink. Here, you're already calling me a malevolent psychopath for... openly sharing my view with you. I'm sure you wouldn't refrain from doing so a whole lot more if you could tie my posts to an identity.

It's called pattern recognition. I'm really good at it.

>>15937158
This is the study that the retarded image is referring to:
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21474316/

The reason I call it retarded is because based on the study you can easily make the exact opposite claim, because it shows that the anterior cingulate cortex (part of the prefrontal cortex) is larger in liberals relative to conservatives.

That would be equally stupid though, and the study says nothing about causality, and claims about atrophy or mutational load are pulled right out of someone's asshole.

>>15940661
>roflmao not an argument
no, indeed, it's the same consideration I'd give a Flat Earther telling me I was brainwashed by the mainstream media.
>It's called pattern recognition. I'm really good at it.
That's exactly what a person who really sucked at it would say.

>>15940635
racial diversity is a great way to break strikes. now what exactly do you think happens when one adds diversity to an entire country? when one gradually deletes its old culture and moves onto pop culture that gets cruder and less refined by the decade? when one uses the young american black as a battering ram? when one attempts to create a war of all against its former populace? when that ultimately fails as it devolves into austria-hungary without the high culture? when one even turns black and foreign cultures into mere urban kitsch? when one promotes hedonism over virtue, casual sex over chastity, and working for faceless entities over families?

>>15940665

>>15937938
>big "fear organ" means big fear

You know the brain is a large part suppression? The only reason you can focus rn and not trip out on millions of stimuli is because your brain has tonnes of dedicated filters applied.

This is why alcohol, a neurological depressant, makes you more impulsive instead of less.

>>15940751
Ergo the the smartest person in the world, is the person literally without a brain. Because they don't have all that brain matter suppressing their infinite IQ!

>>15940108
You're right. It is every red blooded American's constitutional duty to drop as many stupid pigs as they can before they can shoot back. Anyone who calls themselves "conservative" and believes the government and their stooges give a fuck about protection of the people is delusional beyond repair.

>>15938058
Nigger

>>15940752
The don't have that brain matter to suppress negative infinity IQ either. Which would be obvious for a person with a brain.

>>15940751
I agree that we can't conclude that a large amygdala equals more fear, but not because it could imply more inhibition. Excitation outnumbers inhibition 4 to 1, and any anatomical difference that's visible at the macroscale is unlikely due to any specific imbalance of a particular type of neuron, because that would probably make the entire circuit dysfunctional. Also, alcohol disinhinits not because the brain is largely inhibitory, but because it acts specifically on the minority of inhibitory neurons.

>>15940635
Imagine having this retarded 90s liberal jew view in 2020 when the finance mechanism of immigrationist NGOs and lobbies have been so well documented. Please KYS

Surely that is true. It is not conservative blue collar, who is working day in day out at the frontier of the market, who has a Robust ACC that allows him to perform even in the snow, alone. No sir, it is the college/city liberals who totally do not crumble under peer pressure or in fact any pressure that have a Superman tier ACC after all those years of being spoiled and smoking THC. Published science is as reliable as Indian dogshit nutrition right now, its bias is enormous to favor a parasitic annoying class of atheistic subhumans known as liberals and neocons. Enough buddy

Leftist psychopathy related to an undeveloped amygdala from high mutational load. Bioleninism.
Nature uhh finds a way.

>>15945463
‘Bioleninism’ describes a familiar phenomenon in Clown World – social rejects coming together to force their will on society at large. A feature of Clown World is that people who normally keep themselves hidden away out of shame are out and proud. Even worse, they are organised and controlling the narrative. Bioleninism is the thread that binds them all. The original Leninism was a kind of slave morality that attracted many of society’s misfits. Much like Christianity in the Roman Empire, which first became popular among slaves, Leninism first became popular among those at the bottom of society. In the case of Russia, it wasn’t slaves but drunkards, prostitutes, petty criminals and those shunned for cruelty. Characteristic of all popular slave moralities is that they bring together the resentful. Christianity did this, the original Communism did this, and now the bottom-feeders of Clown World are coming together to do it again – this is Bioleninism.
