Isn't that interesting. Brilliant humorous writing. Biting critiques of both right and left, essentially true with each one. And our small minded deluded righty friends don't like it.
Why might less intelligent people be drawn to conservative ideologies? Because such ideologies feature "structure and order" that make it easier to comprehend a complicated world, Dodson said. "Unfortunately, many of these features can also contribute to prejudice," he added.
