Stupid people tend to be happier, yes it's true.

There has been lots of studies on this, and part of the issue is how do you get an honest rating of someone's happiness?

Here is an (10 year old) article from Time about and how studies show it's not an easy thing to judge.

Summary:

• Self-Reported Happiness: Conservatives often report higher levels of happiness compared to liberals.
• Research Studies: New studies indicate that conservatives may judge their lives and circumstances more positively than liberals.
• Emotional Language: Analysis of transcripts from Congress shows that liberals use more positive words than conservatives.
• Genuine Happiness: Studies on smiling intensity suggest liberals display more genuine happiness.
• Impact on Behavior: Conservatives have a more confident style of self-assessment, which might contribute to their reported happiness.

The research suggests that the way conservatives and liberals perceive and report their happiness might be influenced by their self-assessment styles.

Are they happier? Because they sure do complain a lot and get enraged over the simplest of issues.

Love Steve. Been following him for years.

"Fuck you, got mine " exemplified .

More like blissfully ignorant. My experience with conservatives is that they like to sweep problems under the rug and pretend everything to be fine.

ahh yes family values like bailing Andrew Tate out.

Privilege. Especially white privilege. It's easier to be happy when you're benefiting from the invisible suffering of others.

Ignorance is bliss, and to persist with conservatism requires embracing an ever expanding level of wilful ignorance.

I've noticed that conservatives cant feel empathy. They only feel sympathy. This is why they don't understand any injustice until if effects them personally. This is the root psychological reasoning behind the leopards eating faces memes.

Well, they do say ignorance is bliss.

Conservatives are racist nazis that have the IQ of an inbred redneck

"We're happier than libruls"

Must be the whole "Ignorance is bliss" as well

Lack of empathy and utterly selfish. It enables these trash humans to take others rights and believe the lie that doing it is a good thing.

Yeah I was going to say to stupid to know any better.

People these days seem happiest when ostracizing, excluding, and destroying another's life just because they are different.

Empathy is dead, because if you show empathy it's grounds for expulsion. Anyone still capable of empathy has been ejected from society by the twitter mob over the past decade. The only people left are callous bullies.

I wouldn’t praise Hofstetter too much. His comedy is horrendous and he relies pretty much entirely on bringing in paid hecklers. Every time he shows up on PKA, he is not just unfunny but he kills all the enjoyment of the episode.

I've never read Flowers for Algernon.
