Our Brains Evolved to React to Guns as if They Were Spiders or Snakes

THIS WEEK'S ECONUNDRUM

Our Brains Evolved to React to Guns as if They Were Spiders or Snakes After each highly publicized mass shooting, there's a political debate about how to make them stop. Researchers and politicians alike present their arguments for certain gun laws, from background checks to assault rifle bans to safe storage. But Brad Bushman, a psychology and communications professor at Ohio State University, takes a broader view. Bushman researches the psychological mechanisms behind gun violence. And he points out something fascinating: Our brains have evolved to react to guns the same way our distant ancestors might have recoiled at the sight of a snake or a poisonous spider. [READ MORE]

It’s almost Halloween, and Donald Trump needs no costume to scare people

John Nichols Washington correspondent The Nation needs your help to meet our $57,000 shortfall! Dear Friend, It’s almost Halloween, and Donald Trump needs no costume to scare people. Along with too many of his fellow contenders for the Republican presidential nomination, he has elevated crude and destructive fearmongering to the center of an already intense 2016 election contest. Trump and his crew stumble over one another to divide and distract Americans. They don’t want this country to pay attention to what is really scary—income inequality, wage stagnation, deindustrialization, the buying of elections by billionaires, mass incarceration, and, if all of this weren’t enough, climate change. Too much of today’s media lets its judgement be trumped by Trump, Ben Carson, and Republicans who out-Trump Trump. But The Nation doesn’t get distracted. Our readers expect us to call out tricksters for dressing up their greed and cruelty in the austerity fantasy that there is any kind of morality in tax cuts for the rich and food-stamp cuts for the hungry.We’re shaping an alternative and better media, but we cannot do it without your help.

That’s why we need your support to reach our goal of $57,000 before October 28. Without your fierce commitment to our independent reporting and principled analysis, this unique forum for serious journalism will not be able to challenge the lies and elevate the truths of the 2016 campaign.

Our team is in place. We have Joan Walsh, newly on board as a national-affairs writer. We have D.D. Guttenplan traveling the country to tell the human stories of the people backing the Bernie Sanders insurgency, and of the movements that are influencing Democratic and Republican contests. We have Julianne Hing covering the immigration debate. We have Katrina vanden Heuvel challenging right-wingers on the Sunday-morning shows. And I just got back from traveling with Ed Schultz through the factory towns of northern Ohio, where workers are demanding a bigger and bolder debate about trade policy. Everywhere I go, I hear from folks who share my faith that The Nation is building a community of engaged and inspired Americans who are not satisfied with tepid journalism or tepid politics. We do not all think alike, and we do not all support the same candidates. But we share values and ideals, and we reject the politics of cruelty and destruction that distracts America from the vital tasks at hand. This community of Nation readers is every bit as crucial as our reporting team to maintaining honest debate in America. You make The Nation possible. Your personal contributions sustain and strengthen The Nation. Subscription revenue covers less than 60 percent of our costs. Your support keeps the lights on in our offices and pays writers and editors. Every story in our magazine and on our website bears the philanthropic imprint of a Nationdonor like you! Your donation of $50 or more will help us to pay our current bills and commission the next round of hard-hitting articles you’ll be seeing in The Nation and on TheNation.com. The billionaire class may not approve, but we don’t write for the billionaires—we write for you. The Nation’s priorities for 2016 are clear:  • We will tell the whole story of campaigns for president, for Congress, for control of our state houses. And we will tell it from the bottom up, not the top down. • We will challenge outrageous orthodoxies, asking tough questions about war, climate change, inequality, and injustice. • We will conduct rigorous investigations and publish our revelations to over 500,000 readers each week through The Nation and TheNation.com. • We will respond to revelations with demands for fundamental change—linking the truth to the speak-truth-to-power activism of The Nation’s Take Action program. • We will publish over 3,500 articles a year in print and online. • We will produce a FREE weekly digital teaching guide and education e-mail newsletter based on material from The Nation. • We will support the future of journalism by inspiring, guiding, and teaching Nation interns. • We will provide FREE 6-month digital subscriptions to college students (over 6,000 student subscriptions since we started the program in 2013). • We will comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable, holding the weak in the light and holding the powerful to account, as we have for 150 years!

The Nation does not publish for profit. Every cent raised goes back into the magazine; every cent of your gift of $50 (or any amount) is an investment in The Nation—and in the democracy that can only be sustained by independent and unrelenting journalism. Please take a minute to donate now. Don’t get scared this Halloween. Help us keep the lights on so that we can lead the way toward economic and social justice, toward sustainability and peace. Thank you again for your support. Love and solidarity, John Nichols Washington correspondent
