and most people are pieces of shit.

This is pie in the sky thinking..... or should I say shit in the gutter thinking?

Not a very healthy mindset, but if you are an adult, it is NOT easy to change your thinking about these kinds of presumptions.

No, I mean most people are objectively, scientifically, pieces of shit and I can prove it with science. /Rick

It's about the amygdala. The bigger it is the more moral a person is, on average, and it has never in history been as understimulated among the general population as today. This is the sort of thing that collapses entire cultures. Happened to the romans, probably the mesopotamians, the soviets, the maoists and all the other socialist states back in the 20th century, and it is happening again. This time on a large scale.

I suppose that the bright side is that instead of being a sociopath - or a psychopath, at least you seem to be attempting to take an objective approach to the matter.

If you really believe that "most people are pieces of shit" assertion, I was thinking that you might need therapy. Instead, you want to attempt to objectively justify such baloney...

I would surmise that the science starts with stupid-ass presumptions that attempt to prove the point that they want to make rather than truely attempting to be objective.

Dude I never said I liked it. But it is what the science shows. Reality is what it is.

link that science shit
if you'd be so kind
link the science shit where morality is measured
and correlated with amygdala size
link the connection to stimulation of the amygdala
link where this is measured over significant history

Certainly. First, read this book: http://www.anonymousconservative.com/

It's free every few weeks if you don't wanna pay for it (I didn't initially, it's fine). Alternatively at least watch youtube vids on the topic (such as the gene wars series by Stefan Molyneux).

Yes this is work. Yes it will require some mental processing. Complex topics are like that.

Now, having understood the theory, we know that K-types, people with a big amygdala (it physically changes size as it develops - we can physically measure this aspect of how people think), tend towards the right of the political spectrum, while r-types tend towards the left.

According to the moral foundations theory (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moral_foundations_theory) and every test done on the topic so far (such as this one: https://www.psypost.org/2017/06/study-people-left-right-use-different-cognitive-systems-make-moral-judgments-49187), lefties primarily (exclusively in extreme cases) focus on two of them: Care and Fairness. Righties focus on all five. In other words it is a higher level of moral reasoning.

And there we go. It's pretty straightforward, just takes a bit of reading to get all the relevant info.

And finally let me make one thing abundantly clear. I do not like this. I want to be wrong. If you can find any flaws in the above, beyond "eat a dick fascist", then please do let me know.
