Serious answer: I've come to understand that one's political ideology is not really a matter of intelligence. I know plenty of bright, successful liberals who function perfectly well in their everyday lives. But start talking politics and we're looking at each other like we're from different planets. Our priorities are totally different. I'm concerned about things like economic prosperity, the rule of law, and the right to life. They're really concerned about whether a Christian bakery can refuse to bake a wedding cake for a gay couple, or whether a mentally disturbed high school student who thinks he's a woman can shower in the women's locker room. I don't think it's fair that I should have to pay a higher percentage of taxes just because I've achieved more success - liberals have a totally different definition of "fair." Etc. etc.
Whether nature or nurture, our brains are just wired differently. So I stopped calling liberals "libtards" because it doesn't accomplish anything and it doesn't have anything to do with intelligence - I cannot change the lens through which you view the world. You want to think I'm horrible, greedy, selfish person without conscience? Ok, go ahead and think that. I give a lot of time and money to charities which I think are far more effective than any government program. But think what you want.
