    Let’s just say I get scared real easy.

    I’m suspicious of damn near everyone and am still somehow liberal.

    Weird flex but ok

    That's actually interesting, and I'd love to see the studies behind that (and then see if I can find out how my own brain is structured).

      probably won’t be able to find out how your own brain is structured without getting a scan, but your local university neuroscience lab might be interested in a free test subject and would give you a scan in exchange for studying your brain.

        As long as I survive, sure. Granted, that requires trusting Rutgers, but hey, maybe I can.

    What’s this “mutational load in the DNA” nonsense supposed to mean?

      a pseudoscience way of saying, science-ey terms.

      They probably intend to convey physical degeneration due to too many mutations

      You know the super mutants in fallout? It’s like that

    Psyop to devalue human genetic diversity in the eyes of the general public!!!

    Can anyone tell me what a mutational load is though? Never heard of this before in my life

      I gave your mom a mutational load last night

    fascism meanwhile has been linked to a lack of brain activity related to being a dumbass

    Since as humans we essentially rule the earth, it makes a lot of sense for us to adapt to a new reality that shouldn’t need fear.

    But that’s assuming we wouldn’t just spend all our time competing with each other in a negative sum game.

    source
    • pelespirit@sh.itjust.works ⁨9⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Isn’t competition in the US just another way of fearing being a less than person? I’ve known healthy competitors that just compete with themselves, but it’s rare.

        Not sure what you mean, but yes hyper competitiveness leads to less value for human life.

        My point was that it’s a negative sum game, we are all competing with each other in an unhealthy manner, in which we are all poorer collectively as a result.

        And it’s not even helping evolution since merit isn’t correlated to financial success.

    Doesn’t the amygdala handle processing strong emotions rather than causing them, meaning that an underactive one would be less able to handle said strong emotions?

    source
    • bizarroland@lemmy.world ⁨10⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      I have never had my amygdala scanned so I don’t know where I sit.

      I know I am very liberal/leftist as far as politics go, and I don’t really care about the differentials of definitions of those terms. It just means that I am anti-conservative and pro freedom, and I don’t care what the correct word for that is.

      But, that being said, like, most of the time I’m pretty calm, but when I am not calm, it is very, very difficult for me to regulate my emotions, even as a full-grown adult.

      I typically have to lock my body and everything to keep from reacting yelling and screaming and everything when I have powerful emotions.

      I’ve gotten very good at that, but it is always painful and a struggle to not react based off of the emotions of the moment for me.
