I found this interesting, politics by how you look.

[Devo]

Honestly, I have heard of substack, but, never had any interest in it any further, now, this was posted on another forum, and, I found it, interesting.

I am not endorsing it, as stated, it puts things into another perspective I never considered.

1. Defining “Leftism”
‘Leftism’ is characterized by ideas like equality, fraternity, “progress,” societal reform, and globalism. This manifests politically as support for feminism, homosexuality, wealth redistribution, immigration, and racial egalitarianism, combined with opposition to the family, nationalism, and traditional culture.

The rejection or embrace of hierarchy (i.e. inequality) is the fundamental difference between Left- and Right-Wing worldviews. Right-Wingers believe that hierarchy is inherent to reality and part of the natural order, while Leftists claim to believe that all men are fundamentally “equal”

2. Leftism and Physical Biology
Countless studies have shown that physical characteristics closely align with political orientation. AI facial recognition can accurately predict a person’s political alignment 72% of the time, outperforming chance (50%) and human estimation (55%) [3].

Taller [4] and more attractive [5] people are more likely to identify as Right-Wing and more likely to actively support Right-Wing parties, policies, and politicians. In America, Australia, and Europe, Right-Wing politicians are more likely to be physically attractive than their Left-Wing counterparts [6].

Men who are physically stronger are more likely to oppose wealth redistribution [7] and other forms of sociopolitical egalitarianism, even if they are poor themselves, and opposition to egalitarianism grows as men spend more time in the gym [8]. Similarly, men with more masculine facial features are more likely to support explicitly prejudiced ideas [9], and men who are better fighters are more likely to support warfare and hold “self-favoring” (non-Leftist) political beliefs [10].

In summary: Leftists are shorter and uglier, and Leftist men are weaker, less masculine, and less capable of fighting — characteristics that are not conducive to success in any human civilization.

The study you quote certainly doesn't surprise me.

Hell just look at the left wing circle jerk going on in another thread. Leftists in general lack intelligence and are very irrational. Fits right in with some of those other traits identified

[HDGristle]

And yet I'm taller than you, as well as being smarter and sexier than both of you combined.

Sounds like a bunch of bullshit.

[Jacuzzme]

Didn’t need a study for this.

Short and portly are we?

You got the anger part going.

I agree, it SEEMED that way, but to see someone actually take the time to study it, that's interesting.

I actually had hoped for some ugly lefists to jump in with some facts, and stats of their own, LOL.

I won't argue being sexier, but I am a certifieddy Jeanyess.

MENSA don't lie baby, but I'll say this, some of the people I met there were the most clueless, self centered doofuses, I ever met.

I understand there is a difference between versions of "Smart".

[Jacuzzme]

There’s also lots of confusion and conflation between smart and educated. If anything, the two are mutually exclusive.

Well how tall do you have to be in order to be of one affiliation or the other? I would say that if you're over 6' then you'd assume that that person was a GOPer? LOL, and better fighters??? how the hell did that become a political component?

I will have to keep up my butch-ness and MMA training!

On the other hand, and likely more interesting- who doesn't like UFC, or watching guys like Ken Shamrock or the Gracies / or the new guys like McGregor doing their stuff. I love to watch boxing more than football. Mostly cause I cannot stay focused on a 4 hr event when I got stuff to do.

[HDGristle]

You need leg extensions, eye. I'll also loan you some good looks and fighting skills until yours fill in. I'm not gonna judge you for being a late bloomer when I know you sit right of center.

Anger? Because I can recognize bullshit for what it is?


This was a direct personal insult of a forum member that you made, BTW.

I merely asked a question, if you took short and portly to be an insult, that's on you.

Winston Churchill was short and portly and a drunkard, and was still a great man, you should be honored if that's what you are.

[DrivesAllDay]

Well, I must be an anomaly if their data is true.
