@OwlInASack True, but if you don't listen, you cannot know whether an opinion is worthwhile or not.
@OwlInASack These days constructive criticism is often categorised as hate.On forums, lots of groups prefer echo chambers to free discussion.
@OwlInASack The only difference between conservatives and liverals with any scientific basis, AFAIK, is that conservatives tend to have a larger amygdala.
@EdEarl Can't find the article I am looking for but a few years ago there was a report that conservative / religious brains displayed increased activity in the regions of the brain responsible for imagination at the cost of reduced activity in the arise of the brain that deal with logic and reason. The first article establishes the religious - conservative correlation the second article illustrates the brain damage increased size of one region and reduction of size of other region. (re-allocation of resources to fantasy over reality) aspect. [psypost.org]
