In looking at the psychological claims made by different folk on the origins of liberal and consertavive thinking I have found the following to sum up succintly a couple of the major recent claims:
 
I think we can boil down the one hand with:
 
a set of neuroses rooted in "fear and aggression, dogmatism and the intolerance of ambiguity"."
 
and on the other with:
 
creating and reinforcing perceptions of victimization;
satisfying infantile claims to entitlement, indulgence and compensation;
augmenting primitive feelings of envy;
rejecting the sovereignty of the individual, subordinating him to the will of the government.
........
 
Can you tell which is which?
 
Are these stereotypes accurate and if so why?
 
How, for example would being fearful and agressive be different than having an infintile claim of entitlement, for example that the world be as you wish it to be, or, for that matter envy?
 
And why do we not come to the conclusion that both conservatives and liberals are mentally ill?
Do you prefer one form of psychosis over another?
