No but hear me out. Republicans are more social than the left. The left are composed of people who feel more for minority issues. This often is because they themselves are rejected from more popular mainstream culture.

Most right wing groups are culturally frat bros and cheerleaders throwing keg bush parties. No matter where you go in the world. As adults they're chaining boats together and throwing keg parties and reminding everyone about their glory football days.

They are executives and others climbing the social ladder which puts them in a class where social order is important. Hence why they are more effective at spreading information and changing the culture.

They are more inline with the dominant culture.

The left is made up of sub groups within society. They are not a dominant culture. It's why they're more inline with minority issues. Socially they don't even like each other.

And this is why the left fails. They fail to engage because they do things that nobody cares for but they lack social awareness to realize this. They'll go block traffic while the right is throwing a boat party to gain support

I think you've made up a definition of the term 'social intelligence' that supports your way of thinking but isn't factual. That's called confirmation bias and you are rife with it.

Have a good day and goodbye.

Seriously.

You think social intelligence is a made up term. If it isn't and you just claimed it is in order to dismiss me, wouldn't they mean you are what you claim me to be?

The way you are using it is pretend, I agree with that guy

[–] Melvin_Ferd@lemmy.world -1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Which is a vapid statement without an actual reason behind it. A response that lacks social intelligence. And I am using it in the right way

No but hear me out

No your credibility has been gone for hours
