Reply #13: Selfishness

[KharmaTrain]

Combined with a healthy doseage of ignorance and arrogance; both a byproduct of being self-centered. The GOOP preys on those who want certainty in their lives...the need to feel "superior" and "powerful". The big lie is then re-inforced with the mantra that the GOOP represents "prosperity"...since they have so many big money people, it's sure to trickle down to the little guy...or so they've been told. The only thing in their way are those evil "libruls" and Democrats. The same thing goes for a "moral" society...absolutism means a puritanical world that many are fed from their earliest days in religious homes and schools. The GOOP has co-opted the concept (not that it ever existed) that they are the paragons of virtue and, again, the only thing standing in the way for a "heavenly" world are those evil "libruls" and Democrats.

It's a combination of demonizing and then playing the victim...it's been very effective for the GOOP in brainwashing a quarter of this country's population into buying their lies and comeons. And it's all centered around "me". Listen to 'em...all their bitches are about how things affect them, not anyone else. Total selfishness.
