    brilliant work!

  • billtomwhelan says:

    Fantastic material, but it’s worth noting that this really only applies to the US Conservative/Liberal apportion… wouldn’t apply in many countries

  • Ruralta says:

    Appealing how he described the sponsorship of conservative reckon tanks. They used to shoot people who worked against their “freedom” now they spend half a billion dollars a year on “conservative thought” with which they dilute the public discourse and mire more responsible sentiments in the no mans land of ideological rhetoric. If they werent so corrupt the debt wouldnt be 9 trillion.

    This may surprise you, but there are people on the Internet from all sorts of varied backgrounds.

    yup conservatives believe in an objective morality whereas liberals believe in a relativist morality.

  • itdontmatter36 says:

    why don’t you guys just take his class and argue with him in person? are you all too ancient to go to school? or did you not get into Berkeley?

  • maghi85 says:

    oh my… he bunged speaking on linguists and now he’s using linguistics to dupe the audience using terms like nurturing family for liberals and austere discipline family for conservatives
    it’s real non-sense this is trying to be politically assess yet biologically socially domestically inexact
    he’s still stuck on the 60s fad of feminism while if you read on the current literature of the leading authors of 60s they are all in a state of confusion for the horror they had unleashd on women

  • maghi85 says:

    very shallow in his world view this man
    though the part on linguistics is excellent

  • Antiks72 says:

    on the other hand….every revolution ever

  • GOWHITE80 says:

    I have never met a Liberal who is willing to sacrifice anything they are so interested in being unique that they are unwavering selfish and unable to encounter or bring about change. The Conservatives that I know spend their lives making day after day sacrifices for the people around them, it is somewhat part of their natural routine to sacrifice and make it possible for persons around them to meet their full potential.

    When i first read what this guy wrote awhile back I believed (agreed?) that Conservatives are daddy-like and Liberals are mommy-like. But I do not agree anymore: I reckon now that Conservatives are gender-role approval, daddy is daddy & mommy is mommy; primarily social, willing to compromise individual freedom to take a part in a total; liberals are androgyny-approval, want freedom to pick & choose traits, custom build an identity, & willing to sacrifice “social unit cohesion” advantages
