A place to discuss pro-conservative stuff

  1. Be excellent to each other. Civility, No Racism, No Bigotry, No Slurs, No calls to violences, No namecalling, All that good stuff, follow lemm.ee's rules, follow the rules of your instance, etc.

  2. We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

  3. Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.

A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

Pretty sure we experience entirely different versions of reality, not just debates.

Well Liberals are much more likely to be mentally ill, so I suspect that is true.

Or perhaps more likely to seek help and take psychologists and counselors seriously. There’s been a big shift in willingness to accept that one might have a mental illness within the past couple of generations.

[–] wintermute_oregon@lemm.ee -5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

No, just more likely to be mentally ill.

Woah bro, you really told me! One of those nuanced, well informed takes you're known for by now.

[–] wintermute_oregon@lemm.ee 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It is well documented. So yes, it is an informed take.

Only if you actually understand the studies, analyses, caveats, potential biases, and possible reasons for the results, which you don't seem to have taken into account. Assuming you're actually citing reliable research, which is unlikely, based on my experiences here. Again, it seems likely that conservatives lead in undiagnosed mental illnesses, which makes sense given the poor access to health care in many conservative majority states, and lower willingness to have their mental health evaluated.

No. You just keep making things up. Typical silly liberal response. They know nothing about a topic and drone on about it.

Okay, keep on selling medical devices because you were too incompetent at being a doctor.

[–] wintermute_oregon@lemm.ee -3 points 2 months ago

lol. Never sold medical devices. Didn’t even have to use many devices when I practiced. We normally just sit in a chair and ask about your mother.
