    But there is a deeper answer, there always is.

    In this case, we have much worse socialization today. There’s no sense of community anymore, no natural places to go to meet people, families are smaller, it’s much easier to pick up and move somewhere else ending up in an unfamiliar environment with no friends, and so on and so on.

    If you have bad socialisation, you end up with bad social skills, so you end up being rejected everywhere you go, so you end up wanting to control people so they have to stay with you, so you don’t end up alone.

    Thus the fantasy of getting a woman to agree to marriage and not being able to leave is appealing and secures these people voters.

        It’s too easy to think no farther than “lol they just suck, doesn’t matter why”. The topic is over, you can feel better (superior) and don’t have to deal with anything difficult.

      Conservatives being cunts is not a modern phenomena. You are assuming modern changes caused an ancient consistency.

      Like saying that recent video game trends are the origins of skin cancer.

      There is a deeper point yea, but sometimes the deeper points just come back full circle to “they’re cunts”.

      Sometimes there isn’t though. Sometimes cunts are just born naturally and that’s just the way people are.

      We can get into family systems and their environments, stages of development, and apply any and every psych theory we can; blame it on the lead, the microplastics etc. and they’re still cunts at the end of the day.
