Fishy
I'm not an especialist in this area, so I can't put my finger on it. But my nose tells me there is something fishy about it. Just from personal experience. I used to be quite asocial when I was a kid, and still turned out to become quite liberal by most standards...

i think people figure out pretty early whether they care about other people or not.
I think this is a position that can hardly stand up against close scrutinity. I don't see conservatives as not caring about other people, or selfish. They just have a stiff neck that makes them see things black and white. It's hard for them to think outside of thge box, when the subject is social interaction.

Re: Fishy
O c'mon, fallacycop, read your post and call out the fallacies! You're first arguing from personal incredulity and then you try to refute a general trend with an single anecdote! I'm not doing any of that. I'm not arguing anything, I'm not refuting anything, I'm not even saying I don't believe it. I'm just relaying to you what my nose is telling me. I won't be ofended if you decide to totally ignore it (That's what I would do in your place). But to me, it smells fishy.

I do. That's too bad.

Re: Fishy
Er, anecdotal evidence is meaningless, you know. I know that. I'm not claiming anything. I'm just telling you what my nose is telling me. That's all...

I lived 10 years in USA. I know that conservatives can be a pain in the ass. I know that they are self-righteous and close-minded. But I think that most of them do care about other people. may be I'm being naive.

how can you care about people and yet refuse every single attempt to give them aid of any sort? I'm not a conservative and I'm not planning on being their devil's advocate. I'm just saying that I think most of them actually believe that social aid, in the long run, does more harm then good. I just happen to disagree with them.

Re: Fishy
Or, my favorite criticism, the vague "Something smells fishy about this study, followed by an open-ended statement questioning the study's methodology but no actual analysis of the research to show that the doubt is fair".
I`m glad you liked it...
