My Final Word on the 2016 Election Okay, yeah, this is quite probably not my final word on the political circus. I would like point you to a truly unique interpretation of my position on the conservative versus the liberal mind.

Genetically, we are not the same and George Lakoff has beautifully laid out the landscape of us versus them from womb to Trump.

The article is here. It is my strongest recommendation to date on the 2016 political landscape and represents an insightful window into the theory of genetic differences between liberal and conservative cortical predispositions.

I strongly recommend reading the entire article, here are just a couple of excerpts.

"Family-based moral worldview run deep. Since people want to see themselves as doing right not wrong, moral worldview tend to be part of self-definition - who you most deeply are. And thus your moral worldview defines for you what the world should be like. When it isn't that way, one can become frustrated and angry."

Have you been angry or frustrated with political circus this time around? You have! Read the article. Trust me, your temperature will moderate even if you don't.
