    Default Study: Physically Weak Men More Likely To Be Socialists

    Study: Physically Weak Men More Likely To Be Socialists

    By Amanda Prestigiacomo

    Surprise, surprise. Men who are physically weak are more likely to favor socialist policies.
    An academic study from researchers at Brunel University London assessed 171 men, looking at their height, weight, overall physical strength and bicep circumference, along with their views on redistribution of wealth and income inequality. The study, published in the Evolution and Human Behavior journal, ​found that weaker men were more likely to favor socialist policies than stronger men.
    Exhibit A:

    Brunel University's Michael Price believes this may be a product of evolutionary psychology.
    "This is about our Stone Age brains, in a modern society," said Dr. Price. "Our minds evolved in environments where strength was a big determinant of success. If you find yourself in a body not threatened by other males, if you feel you can win competitions for status, then maybe you start thinking inequality is pretty good."
    Taking his assessment one step further, Price wanted to factor in gym time to see if he could determine the relationship flow between strength and socialistic leanings. Are men who are naturally strong more inclined to hold capitalistic views, or are men with capitalistic views driven to go to the gym?
    "When Dr Price factored in time spent in the gym some, but not all, of the link disappeared," notes The Times, suggesting there may be something to men with capitalistic views hitting the gym.

    "Of course this isn’t rational in modern environments, where your ability to win might have more to do with where you went to university. Lot of guys who are phenomenally successful in modern societies would probably be nowhere near as successful in hunter gatherer societies," added Price.
    Other studies in the past have also suggested stronger men are more right-wing than physically weaker men. "Researchers found that men's opinions on redistribution of wealth could be predicted by their upper body strength, with powerful men more likely to take a conservative stance of protecting their own interests," noted The Telegraph of a 2013 study from Aarhus University in Denmark.
    Anyone with two eyes would be hard-pressed to refute such findings.

    Joe Besser of the ''Three Stooges'' come to mind. So does the cast of ''The Big Bang.''
    ''... I believe that the maintenance of the rights and authority reserved to the states and to the people...are a safeguard to the continuance of a free government...whereas the consolidation of the states into one vast Republic, sure to be aggressive abroad and despotic at home, will be the certain precursor of that ruin which has overwhelmed all those that have preceded it.''- Gen. Robert E. Lee

    "man-bun"---dead giveaway.
    "The one who says he stays in Him is indebted to walk, even as He walked." 1Jn 2:6

    Without Torah, His walk is impossible - it's Rome's walk without Torah.

    This is like saying "Long necked quadrupeds become Giraffes". No, it's just that man-boys (classic r-Types) follow their biological programing by grouping together for th purpose of subjugating the K-Types, th builders, which includes stealing their wealth and ensuing the genocide which, of course, creates the conditions that only war can resolve.
    They swore, if we gave them our weapons, that the wars of the tribes would cease.

    Like the physical, mental and spiritual strength of our pioneering founding fathers who crossed a huge ocean... then crossed, conquered and settled the vast and dangerous North American wilderness, turning it into the greatest free and independent civilized country known to man.

    Our pioneer forefathers created it free, independent and civilized.

    Back in the day, North American pioneer children were taught how to read and write as well as cultural ethnics and morality via the one book most of them owned... the Bible.

    Unfortunately, their puny brainwashed degenerate descendants didn't have the fortitude to keep it that way.
