Low IQ & Conservative Beliefs Linked to Prejudice

[Duff Miver]

There's no gentle way to put it: People who give in to racism and prejudice may simply be dumb, according to a new study that is bound to stir public controversy.

The research finds that children with low intelligence are more likely to hold prejudiced attitudes as adults. These findings point to a vicious cycle, according to lead researcher Gordon Hodson, a psychologist at Brock University in Ontario. Low-intelligence adults tend to gravitate toward socially conservative ideologies, the study found. Those ideologies, in turn, stress hierarchy and resistance to change, attitudes that can contribute to prejudice, Hodson wrote in an email to LiveScience.

"Prejudice is extremely complex and multifaceted, making it critical that any factors contributing to bias are uncovered and understood," he said.

Hey Skully, Limbaugh and Hannity have you trained well. Whenever there is a story that goes against your ideology, start spewing the "LIBERAL BIAS" and "LIBERAL MEDIA". It is way easier than debating. Shit, if you actually had to read the article and point out what you disagree with, you'd lose a good three minutes of your day. Who's got time for that?

You're pathetic.

My favorite is when Skul, Dogs or Weezy attempt to correlate academia with liberal brainwashing. They can't even see the irony in implying that only liberals are educated. Too funny.

The best years of your life are the ones in which you decide your problems are your own. You do not blame them on liberals, welfare mothers, the occupy ppl, the environment, or the President.

You realize that you control your own destiny."
