Found an EXCELLENT quote regarding the difference between conservatives and liberals.
It’s from a New Zealander who was commenting on the works of Ayn Rand.
“In recent times in New Zealand I have come to learn that it is easier to engage right wingers in discussions of liberty than it is left wingers.”
“Left wingers lack the ability to move from unconscious incompetence (not knowing you are ignorant on a subject) to conscious incompetence (recognizing there are knowledge deficits). That is, they exhibit strongly the Dunning-Kruger effect (aka the Homer Simpson effect) which in simple terms is that even in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary, they believe that their skills or knowledge on a subject are superior to everyone else.”
Well put.
