It’s wild how conservatives constantly have the worst takes on absolutely everything. It’d be funny if I weren’t so worried. How they always end up having whichever opinion is furthest away from scientific consensus and/or human decency is actually absurd. You’d think they’d at least occasionally end up having a few reasonable, well thought-out views.
Reading psych studies on people who have authoritarian beliefs is eye opening. Here’s a study (pdf) that found authoritarians will seek out media that confirms their biases when scared. The “when scared” is important. Participants that weren’t scared showed no difference to non-authoritarians. The authors suggested that authoritarians will seek out confirmation of their beliefs as a mechanism of dealing with fear.
