    Also this bit is interesting:

    The amygdala is a pair of neural clusters near the base of the brain that assesses danger and can help prompt a fight-or-flight response. A prolonged stress response may contribute to anxiety, which can cause people to perceive danger where there is none and obsess about worst-case scenarios.

    At least one study has shown that conservatives tend to have a larger right amygdala: Political Orientations Are Correlated with Brain Structure in Young Adults

    We found that greater liberalism was associated with increased gray matter volume in the anterior cingulate cortex, whereas greater conservatism was associated with increased volume of the right amygdala.
