The people whining are literally brain damaged. Conservatism is legitimately brain damage. Given the harm they do though I have no sympathy.

That study states that brain damage can cause more conservative views, but the reverse isn't true. Not everyone with conservative views has brain damage.

Idk I live in the south with lead pipes And lead has shown to cause brain damage And conservatives are the last to car about lead pipes

Hell my house sewage is just being pumped under the street cause our streets water main is broken

Yet the city claims it's our responsibility to pay someone to dig up the street and fix it

We fixed our pipes to the main but we can't afford to do all of that

What are you saying, you want the government to just bring you clean water? Like, without sewage? Like through some sort of taxpayer funded infrastructure? Fucking commie.

You've got cause and effect backwards my man

Both can be true. Like a communicable disease, someone can have it and someone else can get infected and then also have it.

That is a very interesting research area.
