Why are liberals less happy than conservatives?

[TomO]

But everyone knows that. Everyone also knows that "peaceniks" are more likely to be found among liberals than among conservatives. Come to think of it, not at all among conservatives.

BTW...Liberals no longer exist in the Democratic Party. They have been devoured and replaced by Progressives.

When the US voted to send $40 billion in weaponry to Ukraine, every single ‘no’ vote – 11 in the Senate and 57 in the House – came from a Republican. Not a single "peacenik" was a Democrat.

Of course, but that's only because those 11 Trumplican senators and 57 representatives are in Putin's back pocket.

Is "Progressive" another word for Communist?

I really can't actually deny that as an oversimplification considering the globalist push for the degradation of private property rights...But suffice it to say the usual economic boogeymen don't concern me as much as their authoritarianism and lack of concern for individual rights. They put on a good show of it but at the core of everything is identity politics and group-think.

I miss good old fashioned liberals...

I'll bet the globalists aren't interested in degrading Bill Gates' property rights with his 242,000 acres of farm land that he owns.

Well...It just wouldn't be sporting to include the Club Members® in that sort of thing.
