THE PROBLEM WITH CONSERVATIVE THINKING

Neuroscience shows conservative thinkers typically:

are driven by an overactive limbic (fear) system, seeing threat in neutral situations;

seek "strong" leaders that share their fears & prejudices & promise to eradicate "enemies";

are afraid of the unfamilar, poor at analysis &, hence, evidence resistant.

#ConservativeThinking is ok as long as it's not running things. Education can help.
