You're oversimplifying a complex situation to the point of adding nothing to the discussion.

On point as usual snappy

didnt stepdaddy talk about hitlers obsession with cleanliness in one of his videos or something

repost this on r/jordanpeterson for free fake internet points m8

WHY SO YOU MAD LMAOOOOOOOO

He may have hated body odor but his farts were deadly.

Fun fact: Lynx deodorant was famously invented by German engineers as a way of re-purposing the chemicals used to make Zyklon B (the gas used during the holocaust)

Anyone who uses lynx deodorant is unintentionally (or intentionally) an anti-Semite.

Free Palestine by purchasing Lynx deodorant here! https://www.lynxformen.com/uk/products/deodorant-antiperspirant.html

Keep sea-air fresh AND drive the Jews into the sea - with AXE brand hygiene products

something something Bayer something Hugo Boss something Volkswagen.

Lynx is "Axe" for you Amerifats out there.

Man can never be hot.

So cleaning my room is an alt-right dog whistle now? Wtf I hate personal hygiene

Only thing I know about British Politics is from Mock The Week.

Which I would totally recommend, btw.

no its bad. watch the thick of it instead.

What if I'm a leftwing authoritarian tankie? What smells do I hate then? Is it Chechens?

If it is you can be a mod of /r/Russia

tfw when Putinism is authoritarian conservative.

Other leftists ofc.

Anything other than BO

You have been modded at /r/againsthatesubreddits

The smell of food.

A good tankie has plenty of food, they just take it from Ukranians.

good tankie

doubleplusgood oxymoron there, comrade

You'd have to be a BO hating right wing extremist to disagree! And that would mean a trip to the gulag that a class traitor like that would totally have coming.

And Tatars, Cossacks, and kulaks.

What smells do I hate then?

Money
Gussy
Weed

Homosexuals

everyone knows that deodorant was created by the nazis and taking a shower is an alt right dog whistle for the jews being gassed in the showers

So subtle you could only pick it up with an AM radio.

I couldn’t have said it better myself.

"Smelly lefties say that if you care about the smell of unwashed vag you are literally hitler'

This explains why so many Antifa have such nasty hair.

bitch u stank

This is something I've long suspected. The sense of disgust is much more easily triggered in right wingers than left wingers.

Probably explains the respective reactions to the trans issue.

Take a shower stinky.

Woah, calm down Hitler.

No thats ..

Take a shower (((stinky))).

Idk a lot of Internet lefties in the current age seem to find everything "gross". Something something horseshoe theory.

That's just because if you're being woke, all the good insults are off the table.

Yeah, they rotate between "shitty", "gross", "creepy", and "problematic." "Gross" definitely isn't being used in its original definition, it just gets used to describe something being offensive.

I'm actually convinced that most of the SJW reactions to things are LARPs- learned responses that are not innate.

That's because their ideology prevents from most insults since they're in some way or another problematic, its inherent to every insult and I think even gross soon be evaluated as politically incorrect.

I could see the reasoning being that the person wouldn't want to imply that not living up to society's notion of what is disgusting is wrong. Its the same dance with every swear word.

The sense of disgust is much more easily triggered in right wingers than left wingers.

I haven't read it because I'm a lazy cretin but Haidt covered that in the Righteous Mind. Essentially lib morality is mostly about harm/care, while right wingers care about a broader set of criteria including sanctity/disgust (while deprioritizing harm/care).

This is also one of the reasons why conservatives tend to understand liberal viewpoints even if they disagree with them, while lefties don't understand conservative viewpoints and just view them as mindlessly evil.

This is a thing?

Lol nah

It's in the Haidt book, learn to read.

What do these squiggles mean?

Forgot to mention, it's written in wingdings.

Wait, just because something is in a book now that makes it true?

So communism is the ultimate form of government then! After all, it was in the Marx book.

Well, it's based on peer reviewed research. Then again it's psychology so it's probably bullshit.

Haidt is a mild liberal. I'm not sure how replicable his work is.

http://www.nytimes.com/2012/03/25/books/review/the-righteous-mind-by-jonathan-haidt.html

I think there's a caveat that neither side is particularly good at understanding the other, just that conservatives are better. Haidt's idea of the two sides having different bases for their morality seems like a pretty reasonable explanation as a whole.

In my experience it is. A lot of young labour voters I meet think Tories are subhuman scum with no regard for humanity. Very few on the right seem to reciprocate that, rather thinking that those on the left are misled or foolish.

Tories are subhuman scum with no regard for humanity

this is objectively true though

This but ironically.

I'm not sure people on the right "understand" lib viewpoints better than vice versa.

Though it depends a lot on whether you mean economically right/left or socially. Socially right/left people tend to consider the opposite immoral and not understand them no matter what "side" they're on whereas people on the economic right are more likely to view more left leaning people as stupid, naive or sentimental than disagree with them morally. Whereas fiscal conservatives are more often viewed as soulless and evil than insulted for their intelligence.

What about the true intellectuals of this age: Radical Centrists?

Obviously towering above them all with the greatest intellectual might and understanding.

I'm not sure people on the right "understand" lib viewpoints better than vice versa.

I've been a lib for most of my life, but now I am an Augustan fascist. So, yes, I do understand lib views. And moved beyond them.

That's nice for you. I don't see how that contradicts my point.

Traditionalists understand lib views. Most of us started off as libs, in fact, since traditionalist concepts like free speech used to BE liberal views.

More people become more conservative as they get a job grow up compared to people who are radical leftists and say in their portland coffee shops.

The latest Presidential election has forced many people to the right because calling people names in America just makes them say fuck you.

In fact most people say fuck you to being told they are Nazis unsurprisingly and even if they are largely leftist ( for a republican because they supported Trump over Cruz, Rubio, or defaulted to him after Ben Carson) they are never going to vote across partylines again even if it was common place.

TLDR: People who are okay with Abortion but really like the NRA are going to vote for what is more important to them.

Personally, I've gotten much much more left leaning as I've gotten older and worked more professional jobs. Tax my shit up, fam.

Yea, but that's not only a Left Wing thing, a republican can become more of a "How would Jesus want me to vote" person and because of that want more taxes to help people or become less of a "welfare queens are stealing muh money" person.

Dat Horseshoe

From Haidt:

In a study I did with Jesse Graham and Brian Nosek, we tested how well liberals and conservatives could understand each other. We asked more than two thousand American visitors to fill out the Moral Foundations Qyestionnaire. One-third of the time they were asked to fill it out normally, answering as themselves. One-third of the time they were asked to fill it out as they think a “typical liberal” would respond. One-third of the time they were asked to fill it out as a “typical conservative” would respond. This design allowed us to examine the stereotypes that each side held about the other. More important, it allowed us to assess how accurate they were by comparing people’s expectations about “typical” partisans to the actual responses from partisans on the left and the right)’ Who was best able to pretend to be the other?

The results were clear and consistent. Moderates and conservatives were most accurate in their predictions, whether they were pretending to be liberals or conservatives. Liberals were the least accurate, especially those who described themselves as “very liberal.” The biggest errors in the whole study came when liberals answered the Care and Fairness questions while pretending to be conservatives. When faced with questions such as “One of the worst things a person could do is hurt a defenseless animal” or ”Justice is the most important requirement for a society,” liberals assumed that conservatives would disagree. If you have a moral matrix built primarily on intuitions about care and fairness (as equality), and you listen to the Reagan [i.e., conservative] narrative, what else could you think? Reagan seems completely unconcerned about the welfare of drug addicts, poor people, and gay people. He’s more interested in fighting wars and telling people how to run their sex lives.

Imagine how goddamn stupid you'd have to be to end up less informed and less discerning than an American conservative.

i think it sort of is. i wouldnt say the default attitude is that its "mindless" though, rather very purposefully and deliberately evil. its also giving a bit too much credit to conservatives imo, there are some left/liberal positions that i think they really cant comprehend, since they contradict very base level, essentially unconscious assumptions (trans rights is probably the best example of this). but as a general axiom, "libs think conservatives are evil, conservatives think libs are just stupid" has a fair amount of truth to it.

purposefully and deliberately evil.

Libs: "Rapists and murders are not deliberately evil. They are products of their environment and mental illnesses. There is no free will or personal responsibility."

Also libs: "Dad and grandpa are deliberately evil because they aren't communists, reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee"

Please don't taunt the children.

my dad is cool actually

See, oppressive male adult cisheteropatriarchs aren't out to get you. They are just more experienced at running the world.

Haidt doesn't think right wingers deprioritise harm/care, they prioritise both all five aspects whereas left wingers only prioritise the two.

Meant deprioritize versus the left which centralizes it. Poor choice of words.

Probably explains the respective reactions to the trans issue.

And previously (and still currently for many) the 'gay issue'. I also find that people who are conservative are much more rigid in their eating habits with little desire to try new foods.

And by 'new foods' I mean 'semen milk mixed with the blood of infants on earthquake nights'

Pretending that cutting off a dick and forming it into a bloody puss pocket magically transforms a man into a woman is a fairly offensive claim. It presupposes that woman are essentially nothing more than a wet hole.

the trans issue.

Imagine a person that combines the most disgusting aspects of a male and a female.

Leftists are disgusting

So this is why I see so many liberal females who don't bathe regularly and have hairy armpits.

No, you just go to shit bars.

Left wingers don't shower often enough? This didn't require a study.

/r/drama btfo

The "parasite stress" hypothesis. What a pretty name.

Hippies stink.

Get a job you dirty hippies

Alternative headline "Liberals smell bad"

Alternative Correct headline "Liberals smell bad"

Apparently right-wing is now synonymous with conservative/authoritarian.

If you do not like another mans sweet sweet man musk, you are literally a NAZI.

i have an extremely weak sense of smell, is this why im pinko slime?

prbs

I thought right wing authoritarians were the hard working type. Guess they are as long as they don't break a sweat.

How can I join the NSDAP

If you think it is OK to even type those words then you already have.

That's great!

I need feminism because all roasties deserve oral sex, vaginosis or no

Does this mean that commies literally stink?

its literally just a smelly feminist calling people nazis isnt it

Did they control for the confounding factor of "dirty, smelly hippies"?

it was established years ago, in peer reviewed research, that leftists have a malformed sense of disgust

theyre evolutionary dead ends tbqh

WTF Indians are leftists?
