All of the power structure in place by both the government and corporations is set up to defend right wingers and it's still somehow right wingers being oppressed to them. Just like it's WASPS under attack. It's almost like right wingers don't empathize with others and are terrified at every waking moment. It has to be exhausting being such cowards.


This actually makes sense. People with more to lose are motivated to fear loss because they have more to lose.

If all you have is 100k, you aren't going to spend it on lobbying. 100 million? Sending the same 100k as a donation to your preferred candidate's PAC is probably a great investment.


I mean, I never said it didn't make sense. But it's funny how the right loves to project an image of "toughness" when their goals are usually based on fear. Of the other, of loss of wealth or status or tradition. The brave folks are people who challenge power, not who protect it.


Yup yup there's been studies showing conservatism is correlated with risk aversion.

I'm pretty sure there is a similar reason for why conservatives like the term snowflake so much.
