Numerous scientific studies have shown that liberals are more intelligent than conservatives and base their view on objective reality rather than instinctual emotion. For example conservatives follow the base instinct of kin selection, where they give preference to those who are most genetically similar to them (which gives rise to racism and xenophobia). Liberals are more intellectually enlightened and realize that race and ethnicity are social constructs, and that we're all part of the same human species and that we should all share equally with each other and not give preference to those more genetically similar to us:
Even though past studies show that women are more liberal than men, and blacks are more liberal than whites, the effect of childhood intelligence on adult political ideology is twice as large as the effect of either sex or race. So it appears that, as the Hypothesis predicts, more intelligent individuals are more likely to espouse the value of liberalism than less intelligent individuals, possibly because liberalism is evolutionarily novel and conservatism is evolutionarily familiar.
We proposed and tested mediation models in which lower cognitive ability predicts greater prejudice, an effect mediated through the endorsement of right-wing ideologies (social conservatism, right-wing authoritarianism) and low levels of contact with out-groups. In an analysis of two large-scale, nationally representative United Kingdom data sets (N = 15,874), we found that lower general intelligence (g) in childhood predicts greater racism in adulthood, and this effect was largely mediated via conservative ideology
Lliberals would be more flexible and reliant on data, proof, and analytic reasoning, and conservatives are more inflexible (prefer stability), emotion-driven, and connect themselves intimately with their ideas, making those beliefs a crucial part of their identity (we see this in more high-empathy-expressing individuals). This fits in with the whole “family values” platform of the conservative party, and also why we see more religious folks that identify as conservatives, and more skeptics, agnostics, and atheists that are liberal.
Conservatives would be less likely to assign value primarily using the scientific method. Remember, their thinking style leads primarily with emotion.
(You) This emotional and non-intellectual way of thinking is especially prominent in conservative males, who tend to be higher testosterone and less concerned about the welfare of others:
Men who are strong are more likely to take a right-wing stance, while weaker men support the welfare state, researchers claim.
Their study discovered a link between a man’s upper-body strength and their political views. Scientists from Aarhus University in Denmark collected data on bicep size, socio-economic status and support for economic redistribution from hundreds in America, Argentina and Denmark.
The science confirms it: Liberals are smarter and intellectually more equipped to make the correct voting decision, that's why we hate Trump. And that's why reality has a liberal bias

Trump won because he appealed to the stupidest people in America, especially the working class whites in middle America. They hate that we Reddit browsing and NPR listening coastal liberal "elites" are the winners in a service-based globalized multicultural society, and they blame all their failures on minorities and undocumented immigrants. They are seeing how America is increasingly becoming vibrantly diverse, and how non-white people will soon be the majority and losing their privilege terrifies them. They see Trump as the savior that will somehow make America go back to how it was in the 1960s, when in reality there is no going back because progressivism and tolerance is the right side of history.
It's not the scientific method if you work backwards from what you want to prove.

By "conservative" they are talking about typical religious conservatives. They aren't referring to free-market advocates or nationalists, both of whom tend to be pretty intelligent.

Also, didn't we rip this shit apart like a month ago? And wasn't there articles saying the opposite that were found? No one wants to wade through low-impact pleb non-science science again so can get his poo(you)s
James Allen
You are now reminded that they can't say "Republicans and Democrats," they have to say "Liberals and Conservatives" to push the socially conservative Blacks and Mexicans who make up the Democrat core into the Conservative camp, so that these peoples average

Libertarians, according to at least one study (all of these studies are probably bullshit though), have the highest IQ out of all political persuasions (liberal, conservative, libertarian). I don't think anybody has checked fascists.
Jaxson Nguyen
You've never been to a university have you? Of course everyone is liberal when that's the only thing they forcefeed you there, teaching critical thinking stopped being a thing decades ago.
Robert Perez
The fact that a Poo in Loo is posting this nonsense is enough to ignore it. If you are too stupid to use a common toilet, you are stupid enough to believe this new-age leftist bullshit.

what I want to know, if racialism is so bad why would it be a human trait, and in extreme cases it becomes a phobia of the other aka xenophobia, so why would it be a human trait?
I'm a racist, but I don't hate niggers. I kinda hate Polaks only because they steal jobs all the damn time, fucking Mexicans of Europe.

No you're stupid and the reason why conservatives get a bad rap.

You guys will go down swinging, I give you that. But it is undeniable that what you view as "smarty pants objective reality" is riddled with appeals to emotion and appeals from authority.
Michael Cook
You gave their jobs to minority failures and undocumented immigrants. That was it. It does not go beyond that. So, regardless of how smart you think you are, apparently economics 101( I.E if you don't have money you're fucked) has eluded you. Really all you have done is invite more exotic rednecks into the nation.
