This is the kind of factoid you shouldn’t spread unless you’re prepared to back it up with a lot of hard data and sources, since you’re essentially arguing biological superiority over your opponents. Very little comes from that

I already have…

nbcnews.com/…/study-brain-scans-reveal-your-polit…

And it’s not biological, the brain changes even through adulthood.

But my comment is already long enough, it’s not my fault most people don’t understand how brains work, but I bet I can guess the political leaning of all the people who just got mad and replied before scrolling down.

  This is a very odd comment.
  
  I’m not sure how my comment could possibly have been any more calm. I’m just cautioning on sharing that specific type of information without a source handy.
  
  You had not posted sources when I left my comment. I cannot predict what you’ll post before you post it.
  
  Brains are part of biology. Biology does not mean “unchanging”, I’m very familiar with neuroplasticity.
  
  I’m a card carrying socialist. Wrote the card myself. I’m also a doctor and don’t like seeing pop science shared uncritically as a way to imply biological superiority over my opponents, because it doesn’t help my cause in any way.
  
  For someone attacking me for perceived anger, I feel like you could take some of your own advice re. counting to ten before posting.
