The_Squid Posted July 21, 2014 Report Share Posted July 21, 2014 This just reinforces the findings. Your fear complex causes you to see the very concept of science and academics as some kind of enemy... a danger... a massive conspiracy to suppress your views. The media... teachers... scientists... is there anyone that ISNT part of this massive conspiracy to suppress conservative thought? ROFLMAO. You are a PERFECT example of what the study found. lol Well said... The conservative caricatures on this site really are the embodiment of this study's findings. Even so far as taking the study to mean that there is some sort of "flaw" being espoused by the findings rather than actually looking at what the findings say. Like you mention, perhaps this negativity bias has been beneficial in some ways... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
On Guard for Thee Posted July 21, 2014 Report Share Posted July 21, 2014 How did the troops in the streets ads work out? Meanwhile, Harper's Conservatives are now running Reefer Madness videos about Trudeau and calling them "political information ads." That's Harper's schtick. He's the king of nasty attack ads. And he doesn't just do it at election time. No no, that might look too obvious/desperate. I think his ego is threatened by anyone who opposes him, especially if they're ahead of him in the polls. I'm sure they will be stepped up as we near the election so I suspect you ain't seen nothin' yet. "Conservative nagativity bias"? If it walks like a duck....
