LOL. Excellent point.

I think it's more like liberals realize that our understanding of life and nature is not concrete, and we learn more and more about our natural world as we study and open our minds to studying and research, whereas conservatives are stuck believing what they have been told is true by propaganda.

It's like how people were told that the earth was flat, and when a scientist told them that it's not, the powers that be who were afraid of losing their power on the stupid masses, jailed the truth teller.

Unfortunately covid revealed liberals were anything but open minded and tolerant and receptive to new information rathet than guided by unquestioning dogmatic belief.

Your point is?

Yes, it's the Dem party that is dictating what women can or can't do with their bodies, who people are allowed to love and/or marry, and trying to impose their religious beliefs in as many spheres of public life as they can in a secular country.

I seem to remember democrats ordering certain people to get vaccinations or face penalties such as losing their jobs. OTOH, they welcomed illegal aliens at the southern border in with no tests or vaccinations required.

Exactly. “My body my choice” ended in COVID with the dictatorial actions of the left.

Private companies, private schools are not the government mandating it. Do you see the difference?

And public schools have mandated vaccines for decades. It is the way to mitigate the impact of disease, in case you were not aware.

PP is providing more evidence to support OP’s claim.

Study: Liberals associated with higher intelligence than conservatives.

Conservatives: But...vaccine mandates!

I'm sure this poster will be telling us how the Covid vaccine is not really a vaccine.

Covid revealed how many ignorant and selfish people there are who would not practice basic public health measures to stop the spread of a deadly pandemic, forcing schools and businesses and the global economy to shut down until vaccines were available to save lives and provide protection from hospitalization and death.

Interesting.

And, I can find studies stating just the opposite.... those with conservative views have a higher intelligence.

Good grief.
We were told that taking the vaccine would prevent the spread of Covid - which turned out to be totally WRONG. Refusing to take the vaccine was neither ignorant or selfish. For many, taking the vaccine was a health risk.

The businesses and schools were forced to stay shut by ignorant people. Once we knew children were not at risk, there was no reason to keep schools closed. And, states that opened schools did not see a spike in Covid cases.

It’s because the Dems do nuance. Republicans do not.

Nobody has "right wing" stamped on their foreheads (at least not until they are wearing MAGA hats). That identification doesn't happen until you open your mouths and expose your bad takes on everything. But here's the thing - If you don't like people being condescending toward you and your ignorance, then there's an easy solution: Instead of doubling down on stupid, maybe instead get a clue about why people think you're ignorant, maybe pick up a book and do some reading, educate yourselves, learn something for a change rather than going through life with nothing more than the D's and F's you got sleeping through your k-12 science and history and other classes.

In the Republican world, everything is a simplistic black-or-white take. However, the real world does not work that way.

LOL. The tell here is your use of the "Democrat" epithet. You learned that from your GOP talking points, going strong since the 1950s. It's not a flattering take, but a revealing one on your adherence to a party and an ideology.

+1, this is rich coming from the Lost Cause Dixiecrats that were the true fascists and authoritarians of the 19th and early 20th Century. That's what the MAGAs represent. Heck, with the Arizona ruling, they're even returning to Civil War era laws.

It's absurd to apply that description to 70 million voters who voted for Trump.

Why? You can draw a direct outlook and political theory as well as history to this sub-set of Americans.
