Quick skim makes the survey's findings sound reasonable and even encouraging. CNN peppers it with pics of a crying woman and what seems to be a child (even though I don't think children were surveyed), and repeatedly mentions the changes in neuroticism, despite it having changed little. To them it's a scary story because since 2021 there have been decreases in:
extraversion, openness, agreeableness and conscientiousness
Hmm, what a great mystery. I wonder why so many people would be less likely to hang out with, tell secrets to, obey or care about the huge mass of cunts that they've discovered their fellow citizens to be, particularly those people who occupy our institutions. Sounds like a rational and healthy response to me; bad news for those with guilty consciences.

That was basically my conclusion as well. They are trying to spin it for control, while it shows the opposite.
