12. Survival of the fittest/strongest is the M.O. of Republicans / Conservatives
Wed Dec 4, 2024, 03:52 AM
Dec 2024

The Republican / Conservative world is brutal:

- Survival of the fittest/strongest ("The weak don't deserve to live! )
- Dog eat dog world, kill or be killed
- Zero Sum ("In order for me to win, someone else has to be torn down, so better them than me! )
- It's everyone for themselves!
- No-one deserves to be respected (even a bit) unless it is "earned."
- Integrity is for paupers
- (Along the lines of Calvinism): "The rich are rich because God blessed them, the poor are poor because God damned them!"
- Poor people deserve their suffering

Talk about a world that is bleak and is highly dystopic!
