New Study Explains Why Liberals Are Pompous Idiots
John Thomas | August 23, 2015
We’ve all come across people that we just found incredibly offensive. You know, those people who seem to think, for some completely irrelevant reason, that they are more intelligent than you and are, therefore, right in the disagreement that you are having with them.
My experience has been that, often, those people are politically liberal.
So, what is the explanation? To explain this phenomenon, we take you to a recent study about how people who believe that they have knowledge in a certain area project this perception into other areas.
For example, people in the study who believe themselves to be experts in financial matters claimed to have confident knowledge in areas about which they actually do not have expertise and even claimed to have knowledge about bogus terms inserted into the tests for the study!
Since conservatives tend to study history (and, thus, human nature and it’s impact on societies) and liberals tend to study politics (the study of how to manipulate and force people to cooperate), often with college degrees to lend weight to their stupidity, it’s clear that liberals are suffering from this same blind spot. They may have studied how to force people to cooperate, but they haven’t studied what works.
And this is also why they are so arrogant about their foolishness.
