Why is it "Progressives ALWAYS need to pat themselves on the back about smart they think they are?

Not sure I get it, as I lean strong left, but I also avoid taking chances, for the most part. Like - I never tried acid because I was virtually positive I'd be That Kid who thought she could fly, off the roof, et voila, splat.
I don't know. I mean, I get that it's Yale and I guess there would be plenty of outliers, and apparently I'm one of 'em.
Or maybe I should drink more coffee, and attempt to read the OP article word-for-word.
I think certain events over a period of time changes one, for instance my boss is very conservative or so he thinks, he hasn't ever voted for a democrat, but the events over the past year and him being a very religious person (baptist non other but grew up Catholic) have greatly changed his way of thinking. Although he voted for Trump because he's always voted straight party line he cannot stand him and makes it known among the whole office which is 99% republican. He said he might even vote against our local congressman in November and our area hasn't had a dem for something like 30 years.
I came out of the military in 71 a strong republican and voted republican up until this last election and if it had not been Trump the people he has surrounded himself with and hateful rightwingers I may have never changed. I am registered no party affiliation but cannot ever see myself voting republican in the rest of my lifetime. People can change overtime.
It is possible (in my estimation) that if enough of your party bands together, they can drag the GOP back to right-of-center.
But before they answered the survey questions, we had them engage in an intense imagination exercise. They were asked to close their eyes and richly imagine being visited by a genie who granted them a superpower. For half of our participants, this superpower was to be able to fly, under one’s own power. For the other half, it was to be completely physically safe, invulnerable to any harm.
If they had just imagined being able to fly, their responses to the social attitude survey showed the usual clear difference between Republicans and Democrats — the former endorsed more conservative positions on social issues and were also more resistant to social change in general.
[Stanford researchers: The secret to overcoming the opioid crisis may lie partly in the mind]
But if they had instead just imagined being completely physically safe, the Republicans became significantly more liberal — their positions on social attitudes were much more like the Democratic respondents. And on the issue of social change in general, the Republicans’ attitudes were now indistinguishable from the Democrats. Imagining being completely safe from physical harm had done what no experiment had done before — it had turned conservatives into liberals.
Yale did a study.
Yep. Yale. The liberal indoctrination center of the universe made some cons more liberal by.....wait for it.....giving them a safe space.

More fun than a guy should be allowed to have.
Conservatives are already snowflakes. They go to their safe space to feel snug and secure from the big bad world.

What the fuck does that have to do with any thing. Ya think you can not get it because of political leaings. I think I still want my Trojan, I think it will be more effective in avoiding that disease than political leanings!Nothing is all good or all bad, I am not falling into that. What people have forgot is that a country needs both cons and progs. The cons fight for old policies that still work anjd the progs fight to change policies that no longer work. in the end it is this compitition that makes us stronger even when it does not feel like it at the time. Do not tell any body but actually , I love you all!Come on we all sway back and forth on the pendulum at least a little, regardless it your your own decision unless you are weak minded and easily brain washed.Because of those that swing back and forth, we ended up with 8 years of Obama and his bullshit policies. Thanks..Come on we all sway back and forth on the pendulum at least a little
What's good about syphilis?
You said "Nothing is all good or all bad." If that's true, then there must be something good about syphilis. Tell us what it is or admit you are wrong.

There were armed guards at CPAC dumbass.
So not a gun free zone.
Sure would be nice if we protected our children as well as our politicians.

Having armed guards means that it isn't a gun free zone?
Stupid.
Stupid.
The word Liberal doesn't really apply anymore.
Most Progressives aren't Liberal at all.
They're simply angry fascists who are offended by the country they live in.

Well yes actually. There are guards with guns to protect CPAC goers.
Unfortunately liberals wont allow that in our schools.

You realize that most schools have armed LEO's on campus, right?
Parkland had one. Therefore it wasn't a gun free zone.
