New York Post—Science says liberals, not conservatives, are psychotic:

Turns out liberals are the real authoritarians.

A political-science journal that published an oft-cited study claiming conservatives were more likely to show traits associated with “psychoticism” now says it got it wrong. Very wrong.

The American Journal of Political Science published a correction this year saying that the 2012 paper has “an error” — and that liberal political beliefs, not conservative ones, are actually linked to psychoticism.

“The interpretation of the coding of the political attitude items in the descriptive and preliminary analyses portion of the manuscript was exactly reversed,” the journal said in the startling correction.

“The descriptive analyses report that those higher in Eysenck’s psychoticism are more conservative, but they are actually more liberal; and where the original manuscript reports those higher in neuroticism and social desirability are more liberal, they are, in fact, more conservative.”

In the paper, psychoticism is associated with traits such as tough-mindedness, risk-taking, sensation-seeking, impulsivity and authoritarianism.

The social-desirability scale measures people’s tendency to answer questions in ways they believe would please researchers, even if it means overestimating their positive characteristics and underestimating negative ones.

The erroneous report has been cited 45 times, according to Thomson Reuters Web of Science.

Brad Verhulst, a Virginia Commonwealth University researcher and a co-author of the paper, said he was not sure who was to blame.

“I don’t know where it happened. All I know is it happened,” he told Retraction Watch, a blog that tracks corrections in academic papers. “It’s our fault for not figuring it out before.”

The journal said the error doesn’t change the main conclusions of the paper, which found that “personality traits do not cause people to develop political attitudes.”

But professor Steven Ludeke of the University of Southern Denmark, who pointed out the errors, told Retraction Watch that they “matter quite a lot.”

“The erroneous results represented some of the larger correlations between personality and politics ever reported; they were reported and interpreted, repeatedly, in the wrong direction,” he said.

SnyderTalk Comment:

The study discussed in this article concluded that “liberals” are psychotic.  I call them “liberal progressives” instead of just “liberals” because they think of themselves that way.

They believe they have advanced to a level of consciousness that is well beyond that of normal humans.  In reality, they are neither liberal nor progressive nor particularly perceptive, but they are psychotic and delusional.

According to the article, “psychoticism is associated with traits such as tough-mindedness, risk-taking, sensation-seeking, impulsivity and authoritarianism.”  Authoritarianism concerns me most.

“Liberal progressives” think they know exactly how we must live, and they tend to be narcissists.  “Me First” should be their motto.

For example, “liberal progressive” women will go to war to protect a woman’s “right to choose”.  They tell us that the Constitution gives them the “right” to murder their unborn children even though that interpretation of our founding document is patently absurd.  They use the word “choose” instead of saying “to commit coldblooded murder”, but the choice in question is to take the life of a innocent and defenseless unborn child without due process or any consideration of the brutal torture they inflict.

That’s murder, and Me First thinking drives that perverted logic.

I wonder what “liberal progressive” women would think about the imposition of a form of capital punishment where an unanesthetized person is put to death by chopping him into tiny pieces.  That’s a common abortion procedure.

This is another example.  I believe that sodomy is immoral and that people are not born as homosexuals.  There is a lot of scientific evidence that homosexuality is learned behavior and that it is a matter of choice.

Homosexuals want us to believe that they were born that way and that there is nothing they can do about it.  I’ve heard them say that being born homosexual is like being born with blue eyes.  They are trying to get us to accept their choice as a legitimate alternate lifestyle.

Even though there is a lot of scientific evidence that I’m right, “liberal progressives” regard my view as hateful and my saying it publicly as hate speech.  They are doing everything they can to silence people who think the way I do.

In a “liberal progressive’s” world, people who don’t agree with their perspective should not be allowed to speak.  Some of them think we should not be allowed to exist.

Antifa and Black Lives Matter are violent “liberal progressive” enforcers who are dispatched to keep people like me from talking.  They are organized and active all over the country right now.

Antifa and Black Lives Matter are not the only groups doing “liberal progressive” dirty work.  All of them are well-funded thanks to people like George Soros.  He created an NGO (Non-governmental Organization) called Open Society Foundations (OSF) and funded it to the tune of $18 billion.  It’s connected with a long list of organizations including Barack Obama’s Organizing for Action.  All the groups funded by OSF share the goal of making the world over in the “liberal progressive” image.

For details, see “Who is George Soros and Why do His Opinions Matter?” and “George Soros-aligned group weighs funding anti-Trump activists“.

What About the Second Amendment

Most ordinary Americans don’t want to be involved in government directly or heavily.  They want our government to do the basic things that it was created to do and no more, so they can live their lives in peace.

“Liberal progressives” want to tell everyone how to live in great detail.  They want to tell us what we can and cannot say, what we can and cannot do, where we can and cannot live, etc., etc., etc.  In other words, they want to rule us completely.

That’s authoritarianism. There is no room for freedom of thought or action in a “liberal progressive” world.  Everyone must comply or else.

If ordinary Americans knew what “liberal progressives” were up to, they would resist.  If need be, they would use force to prevent them from ruling us.  That’s why “liberal progressives” don’t want ordinary Americans to possess weapons, and that’s why they would like to see the Second Amendment repealed.

If that sounds far-fetched to you, then you don’t understand what “liberal progressives” are trying to accomplish or how committed they are to achieving their objectives or how much money they have at their disposal.

This is a really big deal.
