Nah, nothing's inhabited far south enough. Give it a few hundred million years.

Appoints himself into a bartender no-one asked for, keeps tabs and diary on how much people drink, and goes to the bosses to snitch on everyone, just because some people are killing time drinking. In a loving shut down research/military base at the loving Antarctic winter.

I think the more simple explanation is that education correlates quite well with income, and they didn't adjust for that. I'm pretty sure the trend would go away if they corrected for income level. (High-income Republicans care less about climate change or racism, because they profit from them and/or are not affected personally, just as pointed out above. They also oppose taxation more strongly than poor republicans which ought not surprise anyone.)

Educated people are more capable of creating sophisticated arguments for their position and can lock themselves into a wrong understanding if they're not open to alternative but superior explanations. College is all about getting intelligent people to be open to different explanations and not assuming your gut instincts are correct Guess what consistently tracks with "low openness to experience"?

Variation in income within a personality type is much larger than variation across personality types.

  No scale on the first one. The second is just amusing. Guess what's being measured. Frequency of use of emojis by pro- and anti-white supremacists. https://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=3359495

Box 1. Simulated outbreaks of influenza with or without disease transmission by Santa Claus: number of infected people per 100 simulations of a population of 10 000 people  The violin plot shows the frequency distribution of the number of infected people in 100 simulations. The three horizontal lines in the plot indicate quartiles. * P < 0.001; n.s., not significant. Box 2. Numbers of infected people (A) and outbreak size (B) for 100 simulations of measles outbreaks, with or without disease transmission by Santa Claus, in a population of 10 000 people: 95% measles vaccination coverage (children) assumed  * P < 0.001. In panel A, “frequency” is the proportion of simulations with the number of infected people indicated on the lower scale. In panel B, “frequency” is the proportion of simulations of the indicated size: outbreaks with fewer than 150 infected people per 10 000 population were classified as small, those with at least 150 as large outbreaks. From What would happen if Santa Claus was sick? His impact on communicable disease transmission
