From the latest New Scientist:

An artificial experiment but one that may actually explain why socialists are so bad tempered !

Of course presented in a reductionist way, that it is all about anger.

In fact to the extent it is true, it is a manifestation of the fact that the social context is crucial in all our lives.

Only the fetishism of commodity exchange obscures the fact that we live in a highly complex social environment, which, of course, should be under democratic social control.
