4. ...

Because anger is easier than dealing with reality? The reality is that they are assholes?

6. It is because of their brains,

Studies were done that show that the area of the brain that triggers the fight or flight response is more pronounced in Republicans, that is why they live in fear.

7. Fear of losing "white privilege" mostly.

Obama? Wow.

Four forces joined slimy hands to take over their party.

I believe that the corruption of many evangelical leaders is an important piece of the "four horsemen" of this fascist movement. The others are:

⦁ Oligarchs
⦁ Politicians, and
⦁ Our perpetual curses: racism and anti-semitism.

Each empowers and corrupts the others.
This pattern repeats through history because it appeals to greed, hate and deception.

My opinion.

13. there's a house in our neighborhood with a bunch of signs in the front yard...

...angrily blaming multiple societal problems on democrats, e.g. " High food prices? Blame a democrat!" Every time I pass that house I wonder whether the home owner has any friends, or whether they spend their days hurling invective on the internet and immersing themselves in grievance laden bullshit. I'd hate being their neighbor!

18. Part of it is fear.

They’re afraid brown people are going to treat them as poorly as they treated brown people.

Ah, there they go inverting reality again.

The inhabitants of DU are anger incarnate. And resentment incarnate. And fear incarnate. And arrogance incarnate.

This from the most angry, mad, and hateful "people" I have ever been exposed to.... well next to democrat politicians... but it is real close.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

I haven't seen many "angry republicans" burning down buildings, looting stores, attacking orators invited to speak in public, blocking EMTs trying to save people and causing general mayhem because they don't get their way.  If all that isn't an expression of anger then I  don't know what is.

There are none so blind as those who will not see.... :whistling:
Romans 6:17-18 But thanks be to God, that you who were once slaves of sin have become obedient from the heart to the standard of teaching to which you were committed, and, having been set free from sin, have become slaves of righteousness.

Yeah, just look at the republicans who tore up the state of the union speech of the president...oh, wait.
"Be not intimidated... nor suffer yourselves to be wheedled out of your liberties by any pretense of politeness, delicacy, or decency. These, as they are often used, are but three different names for hypocrisy, chicanery and cowardice." - John Adams
