We tend to talk alike when we think alike

People are more likely to mimic how other people talk if their views on social issues align, new research shows.
“Few people are aware that they alter their word pronunciation, speech rate, and even the structure of their sentences during conversation,” says Florian Jaeger, associate professor of brain and cognitive sciences at the University of Rochester and coauthor of the study recently published in Language Variation and Change. “What we have found is that the degree to which speakers align is socially mediated.”
To test the social effects of how greatly we mimic each other’s speech patterns, the researchers devised an experiment in which participants first listened to ideologically charged messages with a set sentence structure. After listening to the diatribes, they were asked to describe some simple illustrations showing characters performing simple actions, such as a waitress giving a banana to a monk.

Yep, we know the far right mimic each other with the same bullshit.

I've already noticed this. It's been something I've noticed for years. People mimic each other to fit in - hence why we have so many whites and Asians doing the so-called "wigger" talk.

Which is the problem with the world, nobody tends to think for themselves, they are nothing more than sheep. Brave people stick out form the norm and suggest something that confuses both those on the left and right.
That they put away such childish feelings and actually work together for the greater need of others.

Let's be people, not sheeple.

Y'all jist start talkin' like me. Mind me now goddammit!
