Scientists discover that conservatives have a threat-oriented biology. In other words, the conservative ideology, and especially one of its major facets—centered on a strong military, tough law enforcement, resistance to immigration, widespread availability of guns—would seem well tailored for an underlying, threat-oriented biology. A strong negativity bias was extremely useful in the Pleistocene, when it would have been super-helpful in preventing you from getting killed. (The Pleistocene epoch lasted from roughly 2.5 million years ago until 12,000 years ago.) Right. Its 2014 now. Can we all please grow up now?
