Yet another groundbreaking story from the pages of the medical journal "DUH".

The weirdest thing about MAGA psychopathy is that Trump is in the Epstein files.

Science confirming what we already know lol

[–] pennomi@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

As it should. Just because we think we know something doesn’t mean we shouldn’t measure it.

You can just say nazis.

Did everyone hear that water is wet btw? Wild, I know.

[–] RedEyeFlightControl@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

WILL THERE BE MORE AT 11? I HAVE TO KNOW

[–] Noodle07@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

More wet water at 11! Stay tuned

The same post under reddit:

Iirc, top level posts are supposed to pertain to the study itself. That isn't really something negative in a science community, imo. Look at practically every top level comment here to see the reason.

MAGAs are shitty people. Gee, what a surprise.

it just baffled me how many of them there are. It kind of feels like at this point it’s human nature honestly.

[–] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago

just as frustrating are all the people in the "middle" who are more ambivalent about trump but still voted for him because of egg prices.

[–] Strider@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

It's just been made acceptable and even praised.

So everyone inclined is following suit.

[–] technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

It's not "human nature" or any other psuedo-science. It's the unsurprisingly result of an extremely fascist society. Literally founded on genocide and slavery. Both "parties" openly support genocide right now. This is what USA has always been.

[–] Furbag@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago

I feel like at least one of those traits are a necessary prerequisite to getting indoctrinated into the Trump cult.

[–] tacosanonymous@mander.xyz 13 points 6 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Lower reading levels too.

Then they screech at everyone that they are “alpha.”

Boggles my fucking mind.

is psypost even a legitimate psychology site.

[–] eronth@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago (2 children)

The real question is why all of those traits are seemingly super high right now.

[–] yermaw@sh.itjust.works 6 points 6 days ago

I think its the same phenomena as why there are suddenly so many LGBT people around. In the past, such traits were punishable.

The sky is also blue.

Say as they do. Do as they say.

I bet there’s a higher prevalence of coprophagia as well.

Most of them can be identified from a distance thankfully

[–] Octavio@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago

Yeah I’m surprised. Surprised anyone needed a fucking study to know that.

In other news, astronauts have a higher chance of dying in space compared to someone who has never left their hometown

The Earth is ... in space.

even if they had lower levels of psychopathy, manipulativeness, callousness, and narcissism I would still hate them.

[–] technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Who'd have imagined that a state founded on genocide and slavery would be run by sociopaths? Always has been.
