No, that would definitely be conservatives. Dishonest AND dumb. (example: you still think that Donald Trump is not a serial liar. If he is not a liar, then no one ever was or is a liar. )
But back to low IQ and political beliefs:
https://www.livescience.com/18132-intelligence-social-conservatism-racism.html"There's no gentle way to put it: People who give in to racism and prejudice may simply be dumb, according to a new study that is bound to stir public controversy.
The research finds that children with low intelligence are more likely to hold prejudiced attitudes as adults. These findings point to a vicious cycle, according to lead researcher Gordon Hodson, a psychologist at Brock University in Ontario. Low-intelligence adults tend to gravitate toward socially conservative ideologies, the study found. Those ideologies, in turn, stress hierarchy and resistance to change, attitudes that can contribute to prejudice...."
Stupidity leads to conservatism, which leads to racism. Sound familiar? Yes, pretty much every right winger on this board.
But I suppose we should pity you instead of holding your racist, stupid views against you. Maybe you couldn't help becoming who you are. Maybe your genes and environment just forced you down the stupid, racist, right wing path you're on.
As King Donald would say: SAD!
