In a moment, a summary of those research findings. But first, a message for my various pale male pals whose politics are somewhere to the right of my own:
You keep me honest.
Srsly, there's nothing more dangerous than only hearing your own voice reflected back at you. You guys challenge me and you don't let me get away with stuff. We may not always convince each other, but you help me test and refine my arguments - without the panic, malice, and sheer blockheadedness that characterises so much online debate.
So thank you. Keep it up. :)
