    They’re afraid of the same thing all these right wing nuts are afraid of: someone else being in power.

    It turns out that when you base your entire political and economical landscape on abusing and suppressing the cultural “out” groups, becoming one of those groups is scary.

      Right, but they are the alpha macho men that are not afraid of anything. Don’t they realize how pathetic they look when they base their opinions on pure expressions of fear? Of fear, in particular, of what they consider “lesser?”

        They’re absolute pussies and dipshits, trying to cover for what they lack - bravery, heart, empathy, intelligence, true strength and wisdom.

        They haven’t even got a cunning plan.

        All they’ve got is bullying and ganging up with other little dipshit bullies and wannabe bullies in large numbers. They are not The Majority, though they need to believe they are.

        They operate on false information and are afraid of things which aren’t happening or don’t even exist. They are afraid of their own shadows - they are afraid of everyone, they don’t trust anyone. Their relationships are transactional and their love is conditional.

        They boast about how strong they are because they doubt themselves… as they should, being a bunch of sad, scared, paranoid, foolish fascist idiots.

        They do not accept themselves - they hate themselves most of all. The veneer is very thin and they know how many people can see right through it straight away.

        All they’ve got is bullying and ganging up with others in transactional arrangements where they can’t trust anyone because they’re all in it for themselves against everyone, including each other.

        Don’t mistake posturing for strength. Even the image they choose to portray gives away their weaknesses.

        An “alpha” wouldn’t need the approval (or disapproval) of anyone else at all - it’s all self-delusion and cope.

        They are so, so weak!

        They are men that project the image of not being afraid of anything. They are actually very scared of a lot of things. Lots of their shit is performative.
