Re: Identity
"Their entire identity is based on how pretty much everyone in the world is against them."
Oh boy, isn't that the truth. They have spent the last 30 years signalling that everyone not like them must be, by definition, against them, and have pounded that into the small minds of every "conservative" media listener out there.
Note "conservative", with quotes, because all too often the people currently masquerading as "conservative" are really "authoritarian" with a "capitalist/corporatist" money fixation.
