Yeah. The left wing guys you mentioned were probably intelligent to a degree that it’s hard to be here.

The right wing guys you mentioned are a bit more salt of the earth. A guy you could have a beer with. If that’s a good thing to you, don’t think more into this.

If you actually want to get somewhere and aren't just stirring the pot we'll need to know some things to prove your theory.

1. We need solid proof of the political leanings of all (or the vast majority) artists from both categories.

2. Age distribution of artists in both categories because suicide rates vary by age group.

3.Total number of artists that fall into each category minus dishonest shite like comparing the numbers of all left wing artists from every genre (and a fricking celebrity cook) against right wing artists from a single genre.

4. We need to compare the suicide rates of each group to the rates of the general population to establish a baseline.

I'm not sure what you're more of, hateful or retarded.

Politics have rotted your brain.

In all honesty, there is plenty of evidence that lefties are diagnosed with mental illness at a greater clip and that religious people, conservatives and family-oriented types are less impacted.


You are far too intelligent to leave that without its much-needed caveat without doing it purposefully. Clever people often do that because they know that with a magic mixture of ignorance and confirmation bias they will get a lot of agreement in the correct company.

No doubt religious people statistically have better mental outlook than many. It’s more to do with socialization and sense of community than anything.

They're overwhelmingly liberal as lefty causes appeal to notions of misery, unfairness, so forth. I'm guessing a lot of those people achieve success, fill their lingering emptiness with drugs and the like and ultimately remain depressed and unfulfilled, leading to suicidal ideation.


Wowzers. This quote is darker than any liberals I know. Hope you’re in a good place bud!

Exactly why he’s such a frustrating poster. I think he’s good people and smart, likely nothing like his TD persona in person.

Pettifogger is an enigma to me because he's obviously intelligent and seems like a decent guy. Most of the time I agree with him, but 25% of the time he comes out of left field with a take that seems at odds with the other 75% of his posts.

Not logically inconsistent or anything. Just in character. Like he has a certain quota of posts that he dedicates to trying to stay in good graces with the politards, although I'm not claiming that's the case. It's probably just that his thoughts so often mirror my own, leading me to believe we align on everything, which makes the occasional wild turns so disconcerting to me.

All true. I suspect that leads to the cult of victimization they believe in. But the ones he listed, I suspect drugs were the primary driver of mental instability.



How/Why is this downvoted so much?

I dont care how many licenses you have or if you have multiple doctorates, if addiction is the topic, if the person themselves is not an addict, don’t bother sending them.
