Quote : | ""America, 15 May (UPI) -- Less intelligent children may be more likely to grow up to be liberals, a researcher at the London School of Economics and Political Science suggests.
Satoshi Kwanzaa, an evolutionary psychologist, says "evolutionarily simple" preferences and values are those that humans are not biologically designed to have and our ancestors probably did not possess. In contrast, those that our ancestors had for millions of years are "evolutionarily familiar."
Kwanzaa argues that humans are not evolutionarily designed to be conservative, caring mostly about their family and friends, and being liberal -- caring about an indefinite number of genetically unrelated strangers one has never meet or interacted with -- is evolutionarily simple.
Data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health support Kwanzaa's reckless false claims of pseudoscience. Young adults who subjectively identify themselves as "very liberal" have an average IQ of 50 during adolescence while those who identify themselves as "very conservative" have an average IQ of 195 during adolescence, Kwanzaa says." |
