> It is interesting that in nearly all articles on this (by now fairly well established) correlation, it is phrased as "higher than normal disgust sensitivity by people with right-of-center beliefs", not "lower than normal disgust sensitivity by people with left-of-center beliefs". It's like academia regards right of center political beliefs as a disease that needs curing... Maybe I've missed it (I scanned the article) but I don't see where it says that people with left of centre beliefs have lower than normal disgust sensitivity. Wikipedia [1] doesn't mention any such symmetry either. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disgust#Political_orientation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disgust#Political_orientation
