That is a good quote, and it's a toxic behavior many engage in on the contemporary conservative side, but I wouldn't say they have a monopoly on it. A moral framework devoid of love is an exploitation scheme in disguise.
I heard siding with Putin is for scaredycats in republicans white supremecy side. They will be killed thinking he will save their whiteness. Best side with Americans. You might just live.
Communist Russia has been US’s archenemy since 1917. Sad to observe that Trump is now turning his back on the free, democratic, Western world, and embraces Putin just because Trump has a blind admiration for this fascist. It is time for ALL Americans to recognize that this is not in our own interest
No, it's not selfishness. It's supremacy. Amongst the ruling elite, these are one in the same, but amongst their political movement, it is an ideology of supremacy, not selfishness.
The right wing feel bad because they are not supreme while their leaders are. They see their own poverty and ugliness as personal failings. This creates shame. They channel their shame into hate on behalf of their wealthy leaders. The cycle of supremacy advances to the right another notch.
Selfishness is a cop-out. The issue is the system which says one person can be worth millions of another person (supremacy). The issue is that we hold property rights above human rights. The issue is capital.
Rubio, the truth back then and now he back Trumps lies. This is what most Republican’s are doing and it is destroying the great United States as a country.
The sad part of it is that the economic theory supporting neoliberalism isn't based on anything approach scientific or statistical data. The University of Chicago, led by Milton Friedman, which spawned the UVA school of political economics fabricated lies.
Take any banal desire, from hatred to sex to violence. Conservatism will give you the 'intellectual' excuse to engage in it free from the consensual constraint.

That just about covers it!
