@DavQuinn Now, there are ideological asymmetries as regards conspiracy theories. More right wing people have them. However, those low in the sense of control, often minorities, especially if they are spiritual, will also have them. Comprehensive paper here
@OpinionRoaming @DavQuinn @SunTimesIreland 6. Here is large data on asymmetry on conspiracy ideation. Mostly right wing. https://t.co/NSZ2k5YW27
@DavQuinn @SunTimesIreland In Ireland, there are few who know this area as well as myself, unfortunately. Here is why conspiracy theories are more the preserve of the right. https://t.co/NSZ2k5YW27
@DavQuinn There are large asymmetries in thinking style. Conservatives tend to be more fearful (Hibbling et al. 2014), see the world as threatening (even when no threats exist) Duckitt & Sibley (2009), and are more aggressive towards outgroup members.

Parece que há um consenso na bibliografia de várias áreas, da sociologia à psicologia que atestam que conservadores são mais propensos a crer e disseminar teorias da conspiração.

Hint: progressive anti-vax conspiracies aren't taken seriously and appear comedic even in liberal circles. Conservative anti-vax conspiracies, no matter how damaging, are built on the same foundation as modern republicans and are considered bold or even c
