More UK Telegraph clickbait.
A simple quiz based on obvious logic. Each question compares a genetic or innate description with a non-genetic or behaviorist description.
Susan is a drinker / Susan drinks a lot.
Choosing the genetic side means you're "right-wing". Makes perfect sense, catches the deepest and most meaningful distinction between
genuine right and left, leaving out all the partisan crap that has confused and conflated the definitions.
But the attributed cause is loony.
The research team, led by Dr Aleksandra Cichocka, suggested that conservatives prefer the use of nouns over adjectives as they "preserve stability, familiarity and tradition", and "elicit clearer and more definite perceptions of reality than other parts of speech," satisfying the desire for "structure and certainty" that's more prevalent among conservatives than it is among liberals.
I shouldn't complain. The "research team" tacitly admits, despite their own demonic intentions, that the genetic view corresponds to reality.
The grammar shit, "nouns preserve stability, familiarity and tradition", is itself a violation of reality. Grammar is TOTALLY IRRELEVANT. The quiz contrasts two opposite WORLDVIEWS, not two different sentence constructions. Both of the opposite WORLDVIEWS could have been written with nouns, or both with verbs. They'd still be opposite.
For at least two generations in US/UK/EU, the leftist non-genetic explanation has been THE ONLY AVAILABLE EXPLANATION. It's the only permissible form of discourse in government, schools, media and churches. It's the only discourse in ALL parties both "right" and "left". Any description that even remotely hints at an innate reason for anything will get you fired or jailed or killed.
"Stability, familiarity and tradition" means preserving the status quo. The status quo is 100000000% leftist.
Yet another case of peculiar leftist bigotry, failing to understand their own side, their own opinions, and their own lethal tyrannical omnipotence.

Graphic sidenote: I was going to make a picture based on the metaphor "It's like asking a fish to describe water" .... but quickly realized it's inadequate. Fish spend most of their time in water, but all fish know that water is not the only thing. Top-dwelling fish experience the difference between air and water. Some of them leap into the air at times, showing that they can handle both worlds. Deep-ocean fish experience the difference between water and seabed. Some of them burrow into the seabed. All fish know the difference between water and other animals and plants. So there's no convenient analogy for the infinite ignorance of leftists.
It's too bad
Flatland isn't better known.
The Monarch Of Pointland is The Perfect Metaphor for modern leftists.
