This gets repeated regularly but it doesn't add up. The right is way into their feelings on numerous topics but are constantly tossing around the snowflake insult when it applies to them. Tomi Lahren and people on the right that agrees with her rants are a perfect example. Anti abortionists are super into their feelings and use personal experience. As TH mentioned earlier, climate change deniers. People that are against safety net programs bring up their personal experiences of that one time they saw someone on food stamps buying lobster so they lump it in with the suspicions of mass welfare fraud going on.

I guess by their very nature conservatives are about older policies because of an emotional attachment to tradition, whereas liberals are about newer policies based on newer thinking, but people are still ****heads, and nothing is that cut-and-dried so...

Confirmation bias is the greatest opponent of critical thinking

Now is this based on your own personal opinion, or did you did a study on this?

quite a few studies on that

Also studies that indicate simply being more knowledgble on a variety of subjects like say history correlates with identifying as liberal
Maybe not English? It's spelt "knowledgeable" not "knowledgble." If you want to retain you Leftist membership you should start writing at least on a fifth grade level.
