Wait, wait, wait

Listen again


His whole "study" can be summed up in about 35 seconds, and he spends half of it contradicting himself?

And that's his argument for why liberals are smarter? 🤔



He's obviously liberal, and not smart enough to present a sound argument.

[SynerJetics]

I miss the days when scientists practiced science.

[afellowhuman]

Everyone just stop arguing! Let's work together, and make the best decision for our country, Liberal, or conservative.

[revengeofpinball]

My dog is smarter than every Liberal in the world...COMBINED!

[NASCAR_Junk]

And this video proves the exact opposite of what it intended to prove.🤣

[jarrinj]

Ok, so I was a liberal, then I became a conservative. Does that mean I de-evolved? How can a person that make such a dumb argument be considered an erudite?

[lieutenantdark]

Just because it’s not the Normal way of thinking doesn’t mean it’s smarter

[furryslayer]

Liberals: we are smarter

Also liberals: there are more than two genders

[alianjum]

I find it sad that whenever I go to the comments of a liberal or conservative video the comments are almost identical

[tjcogger]

This argument has so many holes and completely falls apart with even the smallest scrutiny. It's not even an argument really. No factual basis or evidence to support anything he said. It's crazy that he seems to have so much confidence in this absurd idea.

[idanofek]

Smart people don't brag about being smarter than everyone.

[nickraats]

The premise of his argument is that only liberals care about other people. Very disingenuous.

[I.D.I.O.C.R.A.C.Y.]

A good example of paper vs practice as it would seem..

[bostonchampagne]

I saw neurological tests done and majority of the people with conservative views thought far more deeply than those with liberal opinions.

[vinayakb]

Conservatives: *liberals are snowflakes*

Comment section: *bunch of conservative snowflakes*

[Caligula]

6 years later are living through a Paradigm Shift and The Intellectual Dark Web happens.
