Talk is cheap, but trauma's free and a lot more convenient than fancy brain doctors.

Also that last bit reminds me of Robot Jones.

Just reading this meme changes your brain.

And this comment.

So does political leaning.

With like 15 minutes of training a random person can tell your political leaning with over 80% accuracy off a brain MRI

Which is just fucking insanely high in a country where 33% don't vote.

There's a feedback loop with conservatives and the amygdala.

And progressives policy and the prefrontal cortex.

Which is why Republicans eliminating all the parts of public education that works the prefrontal correct 30 years ago isn't a problem we can fix overnight.

And "friends" who view relationships as transactional.

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 4 points 5 months ago

Absolutely.
