the GOAT
Seems like a lot of words to say that they're assholes.
/s if it's not obvious.
/s not necessary, the meme already implied sarcasm
So conservatives.
This just in! NO SHIT.
They definitely have less empathy.
If they had anywhere close to the amount that the left has, they would never have voted for this orange moron.
If the psychologist would have studied the Bolsheviks, Mao's CCP members, and the European fascists, they would have the same result. Basically low-life shitbags.
What are the numbers? If it is 3% for Trumpers and 2.5% for everybody else, is that worth talking about?
If however 50% of Trumpers are psychopaths, what could be done? Feeling morally superior doesn't seem to be enough.
It's working out OK over here. No interactions with known magas (or any conservative for that matter) that aren't obligated by work or family.
I'm about five years into that philosophy and really, yeah, I'm feeling loads better.
No shit.
You know... deplorables.
is that uhh.. is that image ai slop? not blaming op but it seems.. shiny?
magas kind of look like ai slop to begin with
It sort of does have that look, doesn't it.
maybe legal thing
That is liberal propaganda lies. I will now dox you so a frantic MAGA crowd can come and kill you.
/s (just in case)
Huh, I wouldn't expect a narcissist to like another narcissist
In a similar story, science has discovered that the sky is in fact- made of air.
I am watching the latest episode of Historia Civilis, and a obituary for King Geroge IV was quoted: "The character of which, rose little higher than animal indulgence."
Sounds like an apt descriptor of Trump and everyone within his orbit.
No shit.
Misery loves company
It takes narcissistic tendencies to STILL support anything that has been going on
This can't be true.
We must look at the huge changes to the Israeli population in just the past 3 years. The swing to the extreme right is with human belief. Again, no different to Nazi Germany.
Uneducated, child-level emotions, an inability to discuss political viewpoints, and actual anger when criticizing their cult leader, who could have seen that coming.
Well, you've got to be mental to support Trump. So this was to be expected.
In other news, water is wet. I can only think how fortunate that one person must be who has no maga in their life, and had to read this study to learn this.
Indeed. I wish all the conservatives in my life could somehow have the fever break. I honestly think if some intervention was done, especially in their media diet[1], AND they got some form of therapy, whether it was also pharmaceutical or not, I seriously think at least half of them could be weaned off of conservatism.
Sadly, there is likely no way that intervention is going to be done at scale. Sometimes spouses or family do it, but I think it's quite rare. Whole lot of men have zero friends and very little family in their lives, I think and Faux and hate radio is always going to be a flick away for people that don't have real people in their lives. And the con elite know this. It's often why this stuff is pushed out there at a loss, even if it loses money for years, like Faux.
[1] I remember reading recently that even having to have moderate weekly/daily amounts of something like CNN (lol), IIRC, would tend to moderate their views.
Of course.
Even amidst the overt efforts to eatablish an authoritarian police state, this administration is most notable for being petty, vindictive and wantonly destructive. It's as if even instituting neo-feudalistic/fascistic/plutocratic oligarchy is a secondary goal, and the primary goal is simply to be cruel, selfish, petulant and mean.
So of course those are the qualities one will find in its supporters. Most of them don't even have a coherent ideology - all they have is hate and a petty and childish desire to make those they hate suffer.
I think it's because both are happening, they're just coming from different sources. The authoritarian goals are managed by the oligarchs and channeled through the (easily manipulated) narcissist in Chief, while the petty vindictiveness stems directly from him.
Comical. Psypost also published this last week:
"New psychology research finds leftist causes widely seen as more moral — even by conservatives"
No shit.... Trying to destroy a country because their feelings say the imaginary sky wizard will save themselves and everybody who isn't as cracker ass cracker white is wrong... Will lead people to believe they are narcissistic.
Don't need the sky wizard part.
