[quote=Anonymous]FFS this thread is what’s wrong with discourse these days. People commenting did not even read the study, including, perhaps, the OP. It has nothing to do with going to the gym, and they also controlled for SES. The authors specifically outline that 1. attractive people are given more in life/go through life more easily, from the early years 2. as a result they essentially think they have been successful due to them working harder than the ugly person next to them 3. they then think everyone should be able to pull themselves up by the bootstraps (sound familiar?) the way “they did” 4. therefore they don’t see the value of government aid and entitlements/“handouts” etc 5. as a result they tend to identify as conservative (ideology) and Republican (partisanship) It’s not a testament to conservatism.
