"More specifically in Study 6, when experiencing varying levels of fear, rightists’ support for compromises remains unchanged,
but leftists’ support compromises more the more fear they experience."
Leftists make their decisions based on their their emotions which they erroneously believe to be rational, deliberative, thought and analysis.
Leftists are not normal.[This message has been edited by randye (edited 09-28-2023).]

Of course, that study (I found it) doesn't put a spotlight on the morons with a fetish for dressing up pablum with the outward trappings of a Rightist or Right of Center ideology.
But I have such a spotlight (so to speak.)[This message has been edited by rinselberg (edited 09-28-2023).]

You misread a few of the other Forum members; there is no fear, nor is it irrational.
The extreme Left is a threat to the system of government set up in our US Constitution - they are the embodiment of the subversion the Founders feared would happen as our Republic aged.
They are the enemy of the very system of government they say they are protecting.
I may not come across in the same way some members do, that's just my style; there is a reason for it.
Without delving too deeply into my background, let's just say I have firsthand experience with the subversive tactics being currently employed in our country and on this Forum, and have fought against those tactics my entire adult life.
I detest liars and traitors, and I see them here on this small Forum.

Not at all. I'm a pretty good judge of character... or lack thereof.

I'll stand by my original claim.

Would that be anyone who's not in Trump's pocket?

And I see blowhards and pseudo-bullies who are incapable (and/or not interested) in rational discussion.

There is no point in discussion with some people.
They have nothing to add to the conversation.
There are three members here.
All three of them have an 'r' in their screen name.

Patrick, you are not included.
Truth be told, I feel more pity for them than anything else.
I appreciate a lot of what you bring to the conversation....sometimes. 🙂[This message has been edited by olejoedad (edited 09-29-2023).]
