Low IQ & Conservative Beliefs Linked to Prejudice
I do find these sorts of studies to be pretty creepy. Maybe it’s just they way people interpret them that creeps me out. Using science to to prove that one group inherently superior to others often leads to some ugly places.
I find prejudice, racism, hate, etc., to be the creepiest. There’s a pathology and ignoring it because it might step on some peoples sensitivities won’t get us anywhere. It doesn’t lead to ugly places. It begins in ugly places.
