Per The Myth Of Mental Illness, liberal ailments are not ailments when they result in benefits or society responding positively. And so on for conservative ailments.

Living in a liberal society means infinity pajeets, guatemalens, and bomalians. Living in a reactionary society means 15% less GDP per quarter. Which is worse overall?

all-or-nothing thinking is deceptive, not rational or good faith.

No liberal society has managed to keep a modest or minimal level of immigration over time. It always cascades into mass immigration to displace and replace the natives. We'd all love to hear an answer of how to avoid it, but nothing has arrived thus far.

“I am trying to refute the thesis that leftists are genetically or biologically inferior, or that leftism makes people more mentally ill.”

I don’t think that leftists are mentally ill or inferior but I do see them as more inclined (perhaps due to being overly sensitive) towards pathological altruism/egalitarianism to the point where they begin to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs. So, collectively speaking, they are a threat to Western civilization and could be judged as “inferior” in that respect. But many smart leftists can be converted to classical liberalism/libertarianism and I know several who were.

I don't think the pathological altruism thesis is reflected in the data on charitable giving. It's moral signaling.

Moral signaling translates into support for forcing others to give and/or obey progressive edicts.
