I don't believe this for a second. Because the definitions of "liberal" and "conservative", and the political cleavages involved, change so much from era to era. There's no way genetics changes along with the definitions and the issues.https://twitter.com/AndrewYang/status/1134877455813087232 …

I think this is why
@CoreyRobin's argument resonants with left-liberals my age (~40). Conservatives in my lifetime are not on a "don't tear down the fence until you understand why it was put there" thing, but instead a fast-moving "let's bulldoze all the egalitarian fencing!" -
Exactly. Bring back the Burkean conservatives!!

Recalls Thomas Edsall’s Building Red America, which saw high risk appetite (no safety net; gut OSHA; drill DeepWater Horizon & arctic) as one foundation of Bush-era GOP. It only intensified through shutdown brinksmanship & Flight 93 election. Nietzsche’s marginal children indeed.

I've come more & more to consider the left the stabilizing wing of ideology. It's always about imposing constraints on the economy & securing/ restoring basic social obligations on some level, going back to the utopian socialism that emerged in response to early industrialization

That has certainly been the case in the U.S. for the last half century or more!

Restated, amongst elected GOP, who are the top three unabashedly pro-science ?
