when i was a kid, the general societal narrative was that you’re a man, you gotta be strong, you gotta not be so sensitive, certain things just have to get done, man up.
If you’re exposed to that mentality 100% of the time, and you absorb it and live exactly by these rules, then certainly you would expect to be well-liked, having fulfilled all the rules and all, no? That is why people having that kind of toxic behavior always think they’re well-liked: because they follow all the advise they were given when they grew up. so certainly, things must be alright for them, no?

I think it’s because the media always portrays right wing ideologies as more popular than they are personally.
not the sane ones.
So republicans think trump is loved by the world.
democrats need to stop pretending there are sane republicans.
