    As a partisan, I've noticed that here. Those identifying as liberal are aggressive, vindictive and hateful towards anyone who wants civil discourse or doesn't share their view of the world. They have become the fascists they claim to have fought against in the past, and it's how a despot like Trump can get elected. Better change now before you're stuck with 4 more years of T.

    Well according to a 2012 study those on the left are more likely to show traits associated with psychoticism and authoritarianism.....so it shouldn't be much of a surprise.

    Bunch of snowflakes that need safe spaces eh?

    You're not shy about sharing all your racist opinions and couching them with cherry picked data. Do your worst, son.

    I think a conservative should embrace the free market since there is demand for a safe space conservative social media app, learn computer science and engineer a desirable app for conservatives.

    Let the free market handle it.

    Donald Trump used Twitter more effectively than anyone in the history of the world to win the election.

    No one understands this because of the hyped up collusion stupidity. History will give him his credit.

    Is it an accepted truism that the vast majority of tech executives and innovators lean left?

    Honest question. I know it definitely seems so

    I wouldn't say "everybody", but yeah sure, this forum skews pretty far to the left and so I agree that a significant cause of some of the hostility could be the elevated prevalence of traits associated with psychoticism and authoritarianism among those on the left.

    It would be a majority but not a vast majority. I would say that a majority are more socially liberal while being rather centrist to libertarian in terms of government regulation.

    From a engineering perspective, there was a study that showed that engineering professors are the most conservative of any other field of professors but even then the ratio was for every 1 conservative leaning engineering professors there were 1.8 liberal leaning professors. I personally never encountered a "conservative" engineering professor in my education but then again I attended a liberal Massachusetts university and engineering classes are rather apolitical and professors rarely veer off topic.

    Wrong - its cos you have nothing to offer than caustic rhetoric.

    First two posts on the thread are aimed at attacking people you are accusing of attacking you. That what it means to be a hypocritical self righteous prick.

    Because Conservatives are aggressive, Vindictive and hateful towards Minorities, Non-Christians, LGBT, Foreigners, and Progressives. They want America to look be one color with no diversity.
