| Study: Physically Weak Men More Likely To Be Socialists |
| 2017-05-28 |
| h/t Instapundit An academic study from researchers at Brunel University London assessed 171 men, looking at their height, weight, overall physical strength and bicep circumference, along with their views on redistribution of wealth and income inequality. The study, published in the Evolution and Human Behavior journal, ​found that weaker men were more likely to favor socialist policies than stronger men. |

| #6 Those that are weak mentally or physically will crave to be taken care of. Hence socialists. Real men say, "Fuck You" and do it themselves. |

| #5 Physically weak? I'm thinking more like weak minded. Maybe the two go together. |

| #3 Makes perfect sense. They favor the system that benefits them the most. More able people favor the system that lets them keep their own work. No wonder socialism won't go away, it's biologically ingrained. |

| #2 I don't think it's so much a lack of physical prowess as it's a lack of courage: physical and intellectual. I believe most "socialists" nowadays are actually conformists - in earlier era they'd be Mrs Grundy. |

| #1 No shit. Ultimately, that socialist society ends up being harder on the weak in the long run. |
