you can also see it in their eyes, if you know what to look for

intelligent people tend to have deep-looking eyes that seem to see everything

stupid people have dull or empty eyes

even idiots with strong emotions have emptiness hidden in there

one thing that makes me sad is, some of our foes in the Democrap party are smart, but they use their intelligence on how to help themselves, or how to step on others, rather than to benefit society

RINOs aren't much better

we can't quite call them 100% stupid, but they certainly have not used their brains for something good or productive in their line of work

oh yeah, intelligent people write/type better than stupid people

Yeah the writing typing thing could indicate intelligence, could also indicate education, which get conflated often

Democrats strongly believe that they are helping society (and there’s some evidence to prove this)

Certainly, the economy fairs better under democratic presidents

I don't think that's accurate

Did you read the study? It’s staggeringly in depth

They measured the economy in like 20 different ways

And accounted for time from policy enactments

You can usually tell by how they express themselves and articulate their thoughts.

As far as the eyes go it's hogwash.

You could argue lighter eyes = higher intelligence due to European ancestry.

Lol

Surprised the admins allowed democrats in here

Republicans are autistic enough but I remember the flood of Bernie bros from the first political discords

I’m surprised I’m here too

@wahx "Certainly, the economy fairs better under democratic presidents", except for this one of course

Yeah it’s a generalized statement, notice how I didn’t say “Certainly, the economy always fairs better under democratic presidents”

You know about the idea that there was a party switch

Yeah, my mom lectures about this. Or used to when she taught polysci

I think it's a little different than what they say

This study is for modern presidents

Not talking about the study

Then what are you talking about?

How did parties switch according to you?

Well I'm about to get to that

Now back then it's fair to say that the Democrats were originally conservative, and the Republicans more liberal correct

You could clearly see it in the Civil War and events occurring after

However, today's Democratic liberals are not the liberals we would have seen back when the Republicans were liberals

In fact a liberal today (or a leftist rather) is completely different

An old fashion liberal today would be a rightwing libertarian

Probably because the terms liberal and conservative don’t mean jack shit

you should see what they're like in England

Oh in England it's a fuckin mess
