Huffing Right-Wing media all day turning people extremely paranoid for no actual reason.
Sortof the defining characteristic of regressives is that they are easily brainwashed by media. An enlarged amygdala makes them fear and rage-addicted.
That doesn't explain the city/rural divide though. It could well be that listening to reactionary right wing rhetoric leads to an enlarged amygdala.
Or that people prone to fear of others would self select living in areas that provide them with fewer others
It could be that the kinds of life experienced which lead to large amygdalas also lead to conservative political views.
But sure, let’s pretend it’s not trauma that enlarges the amygdala, but rather the act of listening to long-form interviews.
I'm not sure there is a distinction of kind between trauma and listening to right wing media.
An enlarged amygdala is a sign of having been through some really hard shit
That's exactly the reason. When push comes to shove, these are the people that will be willingly used for fodder on the front lines.
Knowledge Fight takes a critical look at Alex Jones(I put this in every post I make about him because I can't stand to listen to AJ direct, and I don't want people thinking I do). Anyway, he goes out to break quite often shouting stuff like THEYRE COMING FOR YOU, THEY'RE COMING FOR YOU, THEY'RE COMING FOR YOU!!! after having discussed the "demonic antifa/BLM/democrats coming to your houses."
Obviously not everyone is as sensationalist as Alex Jones, but he's been bragging about how other places have started sounding like him. Including Joe Rogan (probably more on Vax and stuff like that, but still)
Alex thinks he is fighting the literal christian devil. Like there is no way to deal with that other than violence.
Also hello fellow wonk
No he doesn't, he's a con man who frightens people to get donations and to sell survival scams. His listeners might believe that but he's there when he makes some of that shit up himself and just uses the improv "yes, and" for other crazy shit he sees or listeners/viewers call on with (assuming they aren't just actors saying what he's told them to).
I wonder how many vatniks went to the front line eager to kill some ukranians and then collect the medals and go home.
