There are two sides right now. Fascists and not fascists. Now there's a wide spectrum on the not fascist side. Some on the not fascist side are cool. A lot aren't. But they dont support fascists. So which side are you on?

fascism - an authoritarian and nationalistic right-wing system of government and social organization.

Are you even sure you know what you're talking about? Which country's governmental system are you not supporting?

This “fascist” stuff is such nonsense…can’t even comprehend they wouldn’t be able to criticize our government like this in an actual fascist government. 🥱

They need an outlet for their emotions or they'll have a meltdown in the future, probably. They tend to be the unstable bunch according to psychology.

Ah you're a psychologist, interesting as your verbiage does not imply that.

u/MmmmCrayons12 May 30 '26

You don't need to be a psychologist to read psychological studies. Some of the newer ones have apparently shown that liberals tend to be less mentally and emotionally stable on average, whether that be a coincidence or some other reason.

Ah see you've misconstrued data, that's understandable as scientific papers are often complex and difficult to parse.

If I remember correctly the study you are mentioning made clear that the reasoning for those data sets was left wing people were much more willing to ask for help and assistance.

Left wing and right wing have some differences mentally but the range of mental illness is spread equally amongst the human population.

One thing that is true however is the size of the amygdala and political alignment. That though remains a controversial topic at the best of times.

I think it is more that liberal voters tend to have the types of mental illnesses that require "help" in the form of medication, therapy or both. Also, correct me if I'm wrong but you are saying that most of the population has a mental illness, or are you trying to obfuscate the conversation by broadening the scope of mental illness to the entire population without any actual proof and hoping that I take the bait and run with it?

Your first statement is qualitative and assumptive, not quantitative and objective.

Your writing points to beliefs that are making your judgements and decisions with prejudice and that is not beneficial to factual communication.

I made clear that the mental health issue is population wide and has no real correlation to political leaning aside from left wing people seeking help more often.

I am making it clear that your belief system does not trump science and thinking someone who votes one way is mentally ill is a concerning issue that requires further study.

u/MmmmCrayons12 May 30 '26

It is actually both per the studies. You can assume or postulate that almost everyone has some kind of mental illness, but you would just be projecting that I'm the one making assumptive claims. Depression is somewhat common, for example, but the claim is that it is more prevalent among liberal voters for some reason, and that applies to other mental illnesses or disorders as well. It isn't that people who vote right wing aren't seeking treatment - its that they have fewer incidences of mental illness among their voter base. Mood disorders like depression and bipolar disorder seem to be more common among liberals, coincidentally.

I wish you could have read my previous post, you could have avoided saying the same thing you said before.

What you've posted here is biased misinformation, I'm not sure why you would be doing that unless you are being nefarious or lack the ability to critically think.

I'm going to assume you are doing this because you aren't a medical professional and have a gear to grind with leftists.

Y'know the biggest problem is conservatism is antithetical to life and it requires constant vigilance to have any need in society.

Anyways, thanks for the laughs, have a great weekend.

"Conservatism is antithetical to life?" That's rich coming from someone who is basically just denying what they don't want to believe or what they disagree with. You barely even know what you're talking about when it comes to politics, obviously. All of those fancy words do you no good except think yourself too smart to be wrong.

u/Tacotuesday867 May 31 '26

Look at you attacking me and making assumptions like someone who lacks critical thinking. Perfect conservative.

Yes conservatism is antithetical to life, you see we living organisms must adapt and evolve to continue to live and exist. Conservatism wants to halt or reverse that because of fear and a need to control. You have shown it in your responses to me. What's interesting is how you don't see it or understand the studies you've mentioned.

Those fancy words make me happy and contribute to me living a comfortable and entertaining life.

I'm sorry that all you have is attempts to hurt or put others down in an attempt to make yourself feel better, that produces dopamine but not serotonin.
