Increased testosterone levels can cause Democrats to become more conservative in their political affiliation, a recent experiment analyzing voters in U.S. elections found.

The study – Testosterone Administration Induces A Red Shift in Democrats – was published on November 14th, 2021 by Professor Paul Zak, the Director of the Center for Neuroeconomics Studies at Claremont Graduate University.

“His research has made a substantial impact in explaining the variation in human social behaviors and has been cited by other scholars over 18,000 times placing in the top 0.3% of all scholars,” explains his professional biography.

Zak’s latest findings reveal a link between testosterone levels and political preference through analyzing 136 voting-age males throughout the 2012 election season.

“Our results demonstrate that testosterone induces a “red shift” among weakly-affiliated Democrats,” summarized the paper.

Researchers administered synthetic testosterone or placebo to participants who previously disclosed their political affiliations, allowing researchers to track how the hormone affected participants’ politics.

“When weakly affiliated Democrats received additional testosterone, the strength of their party fell by 12 percent and they reported 45 percent warmer feelings towards Republican candidates for president,” explained the study.

“Before the testosterone treatment, we found that weakly affiliated Democrats had 19 percent higher basal testosterone than those who identified strongly with the party,” the study continues, reiterating the correlation between individuals with lower testoreone having left-wing political beliefs.

While the effects of testosterone waned with individuals who were staunch Democrats or weak Republicans, “our findings provide evidence that neuroactive hormones affect political preferences,” posits the study.

The study comes amidst an ongoing discussion about declining testosterone levels in the U.S. and mainstream media outlets such as The New York Times attacking Fox News host Tucker Carlson for addressing the issue in a recent documentary.

The unearthed link between hormones and political ideology also follows scientists floating “morality pills” as a method to enforce COVID-19 mandate compliance.

Billionaire Tesla CEO Elon Musk on Twitter Wednesday called the Democrat Party one of “division & hate” and predicted that they will conduct a “dirty tricks campaign” against him over his recent announcement that he would be voting for the Republican Party in the 2024 election.

In the tweet, Musk explained that he had typically voted for Democrats before because they were kind.

Now, Musk says the party has become one of division, hate, and dirty tricks.

“In the past, I voted Democrat, because they were (mostly) the kindness party. But they have become the party of division and hate, so I can no longer support them and will vote Republican,” Musk wrote.

Now, watch their dirty tricks campaign against me unfold … 🍿

Musk said that he expects the Democrats to conduct a “dirty tricks” campaign against him.

“Now, watch their dirty tricks campaign against me unfold,” he said, adding a popcorn emoji.

The tweet came shortly after Musk had said “political attacks on me will escalate dramatically in coming months” in a separate tweet.

Valiant News previously reported that Musk declared that he will vote Republican at the next election, despite having always voted for Democrats in the past during a live recording of the All-In Podcast on Monday.

When Musk was asked about why he was so invested in purchasing Twitter and turning it into a private company, he argued that there was a serious need for a digital town square that is inclusive, politically balanced, and transparent about their algorithms.

“Why is one tweet doing well? Why is another tweet not?” he asked. “Is it the algorithm? Did someone manually intervene? Why are some accounts banned with no recourse apparently?” Musk continued.

Musk said that the current reality was that Twitter has a “very far-left” bias, which could not continue.

“I would class myself as a moderate, neither Republican nor Democrat, and in fact I have voted overwhelmingly for Democrats, overwhelmingly,” he added.

Musk’s purchase of Twitter is currently on hold, pending an investigation into the levels of fake and spambot accounts on the platform, but confirmed that he was still “committed” to buying it.

Rep. Eric Swalwelll (D-CA) stated on Wednesday that the decision for a mother to abort her child  is like deciding which job opportunity to pursue.

“You know, we are talking about a decision that is so personal, and one that families and individuals with their families and their friends make oftentimes at the kitchen table,” Swalwell said.

“It’s one of those few decisions in your life that will require you to consult with your friends and your family,” Swalwell continued. “It’s like deciding what career you’re going to pursue, whether you’re gonna have a family, who you’re going to marry.”

Swalwell was the subject of scorn on social media this week after he implied a church shooter that authorities have described as a Chinese nationalist motivated by anti-Taiwanese sentiment was an agent of the GOP.

“Sorry @housegop that the parishioners hog-tied your boy,” Swalwell tweeted. “#SorryNotSorry.”

“The suspect is a man from China who the FBI has opened a hate crime investigation into because he allegedly targeted the parishioners based on their Taiwanese identity,” journalist Andy Ngo replied to Swalwell. “Given your past personal connections to a Chinese Communist spy, it’s more likely the suspect was ‘your boy.’”
