Well written, I wonder what caused that emotional resentment?
My guess would be cancel culture, I believe his supporters only like him because progressive people hate him.
the emotional resentment comes from the perpetual victim mentality. the only way their way of life works is if they are constantly under attack by a villain of the week thats simultaneously incompetent and feeble but also sadistic and near unstoppable.
Yeah I guess there's also underlying issues of feeling lost and insignificant in a complex world. Add to that economic struggle and a lacking class awareness and cognitive dissonance does the rest.
Probably has something to do with racism and the election of a black president.
