She's from South America originally and spent about 14 years growing up there, I think. There's probably good reason her family took the opportunity to emigrate to the States when they did. My understanding is that part of the liberal mental disorder is a dysfunctional/deformed amygdala. Her parents are fine folks - hardworking, small business owners. It's just poor luck that when their genes combined, it produced leftist mentalities.
She could have succumbed to it in school...
I'm not going to pretend I wasn't brainwashed by the time I finished college. Reality tends to teach a person many more valuable lessons than the educational coddling that goes on in a controlled environment. Reconciling facts of life from fiction is an essential life skill that many people are completely inept at (see: lifelong democrats).
People get comfortable and don't like their lives upended with reality.
Do you listen to the No Agenda podcast? They always mention shrinking amygdala.
I hadn't heard of it until now. I'm generally not a big podcast person. That topic was just something I was interested in a few years back after wondering why some of my former acquaintances were mostly competent in STEM, yet could have extreme cognitive dissonance when it came to extending that information to politics. I forget where I first read the article about the amygdala, but then a few years later drops about giving people brain damage to change their religious beliefs and be more accepting of immigrants. They don't specifically cite the amgydala as the target, however
>These researchers sought to do the opposite—to temporarily disable one part of the brain (the part that responds to threats) and measure its effect on beliefs and prejudices connected to them.
makes it sound like that's the region they were targeting with their experiments.
Wow i need to look more into this. Didnt realize it was more than just a joke
