23. Right wingers like to harp on about "angry liberals", when in fact they are perpetually angry

Spurred on by Fox News, InfoWars, Rush Limpballs etc...

They are angry and nasty when there is a Democratic President. But having a Republican President makes them even angrier! Because 1. Their lives, and financial situation, are not markedly any more improved, and probably worse under an administration that cares only for 1% of the population. And they simply can't admit that and so their frustration has to come out somewhere else. And 2. They are such fragile snowflakes, that they will never admit they made a mistake, and so will go overboard in lashing out anyone who represents a threat to pointing out how mislead they were/are.

I think deep down, liberals just want to live and let live. Enjoy life. Single Payer Medicare for All is not only about saving money and insuring more, its also about living with less stress. Look at how many happy laughing occasions we had under Obama. Days, weeks went by without any drama. Many stories about musical performances, or holiday celebrations, with shots of a smiling first family.

With Republicans, not only Trump, it is all about anger. Manufactured if they have to. It doesn't matter if everything goes their way electorally even. All branches, and two stolen judges change nothing. Complain and whine. They seem to crave stress and setting the narrative that they are being attacked daily, (by angry libs). I don't know how one can live like that.
