Their tor doesn't seem to be paywalled.

Red counties, which are overwhelmingly Republican, tend to report higher charitable contributions than Democratic-dominated blue counties, according to a new study on giving, although giving in blue counties is often bolstered by a combination of charitable donations and higher taxes.

Maybe they come out more or less even, I don't know. But to say conservatives are "me me me" and liberals are "we we we" is just ignorant and doesn't jive with the facts.

I a little bit of hope that you'll read this and change the conservative strawman you have in your head just a little bit. You can't engage in honest conversation when you do that.

The problem is that you don't understand conservative viewpoints. Not that you disagree, that you don't understand.

Here's a short reading list, with liberal authors, about it:

• "The Moral Roots of Ideology" by Jonathan Haidt and Jesse Graham (2007):

This study explores the moral foundations theory and suggests that liberals and conservatives tend to prioritize different moral values, leading to divergent political ideologies. Understanding these underlying moral foundations can contribute to a better understanding of political differences.

• "The Ideological Animal" by John T. Jost, Christopher M. Federico, and Jaime L. Napier (2009)

This article discusses the psychological underpinnings of political ideology and explores factors that influence individuals' understanding of opposing viewpoints, such as openness to experience, cognitive flexibility, and exposure to diverse perspectives.

• "Beyond Ideology: Predicting Political Bias and Attitude Extremity from Personal Need for Structure" by John T. Jost, Jack Glaser, Arie W. Kruglanski, and Frank J. Sulloway (2003):

This study examines the role of psychological factors, such as the need for structure and certainty, in shaping political bias and the ability to understand opposing views.

Or just continue to spew hate. Your call, buddy.
