Edit: review from adjacent thread
There are some shenanigans in this paper so far, like using regional statistics (conservative places) to generalize about very particular sociopolitical cleavages (conservative ideology) and failure to control for, or even acknowledge, more obvious independent variables such as local economy, infrastructure, and socioeconomics.
Conservative areas are poorer in most of the states, which do have worse health outcomes, so I think they just overtuned and excluded the poors.
I don't really want to read that garbage to properly rebut it.
