I guess US marks high in obedience, then? Considering current administration >.>
Depends on who ya sample, haha. Obedience has a lot of factors, and yes, the Trump voters share a lot of those traits, like authortarian thinking and black and white morality; but also not in some regards (agreeableness, for instance, is likely to confirm but that can easily define neolibs too).
Social intelligence, though, less likely as well as self-monitoring and a few other things that I'll need to check my notes on that I don't remember off hand. It's pretty intuitive, you don't shock people if you have a traits that make you question your actions and would ultimately regret it.
Third fun fact for you, obedience research came out of WW2, and Milgrim in particular was trying to understand why people would follow Nazi orders. Weird how history repeats itself, huh?
