One poll in one city (in Germany) may perhaps be a bit of a stretch to apply to all people everywhere.
"Contingent with almost all mental illness is a lack of sense of self."
This would then seem to also include rightwing racists, who see their race as their identity, just as it would those who are left collectivist, or even right collectivist, such as the Nazis, or even those ultra nationalists of any country who view themselves as part of that collective as their primary identity.
As for "rugged right individualist right wingers", what an irony that among the states that take in more federal government spending than they pay in taxes, 15 of the top 25 are Repub(#1 is Dem New Mexico, so as not to be attempting to play fast and loose with facts in an effort to deceive).
People are individuals and that is how I take them, even though I'm definitely a lefty, (by no means a lib and certainly not a Dem), I have at least as many rightwing friends as libs and least of all people with my overall beliefs, which can be explained because there are far fewer of us
If you want to highlight the lib/some lefty cluster fuck thinking regarding Trump/Russia, or the pandemic, then I won't disagree it's been deranged, but then you could say the same about the Obama derangement syndrome, seeing this consummate corporate whore as some fire breathing socialist, or forecasting our doom because we finally withdrew from the war in Afghanistan, a war we lost over 19 years ago, because terrorists were sure to attack The Homeland, to hear some on the right.
I think we all bring our own individual nature and our life experiences to inform our beliefs. I'm left, but my first responsibility is for myself and my family, but for me, it doesn't end there, but extends to others, and while I believe in as little compulsion as possible, unfortunately sometimes that caring for others has to some degree be a societal imposition. I've known far too many people who are more than willing to let others do all the heavy lifting as they sit back and reap the benefits. Perhaps our current form of war fighting, where most go shopping and 1% endure all the hardships, would highlight that. In a perfect world, with perfect people, I'd be a left libertarian, but I've lived 74 years on this planet and I'm not holding my breath.
To that bullshit about fiar share. I haven't worked all the numbers out but I did notice the little trick of "taxes" which of course ignores that many of those fly over red states are resource states where the feds get lots of royalties. The State of Alaska for example gives the feds about $2,000,000,000 is royalties on oil alone. That doesn't include royalties natural gas, timber, fish, mining etc.
But I get it. You are an elitist asshole! You want to believe some bullshit about you give more.
But hey look at the trucker strike in Canada right now. When we cut you off from all those actual resources you take from us I will be laughing as you choke eating your worthless paper money because you are starving with no heat, and no power.
Lets have a go at it. We will cut you off from resources and you can cut us off from ... well I guess "academic papers" facebook. We will see who caves first.
You can look up the numbers and see I'm right. Red states tend to have lower wages, thus lower tax revenues, not to mention that California, which by itself is somewhere around the sixth or seventh largest economy in the world, pays oodles of taxes.
The red states tend to be moochers, if that's uncomfortable for you then huddle in your tribe and virtue signal each other like the libs do.
A nation of snowflake libs and bone spur cons, each sucking on their thumbs and crying about their victimhood, which they and they alone must bear.
Boohoo.
Not an elitist, but I could be an asshole, as perhaps you are, but not knowing you, I'll refrain from making that judgment.
Probably the only elite group I was a part of was the 101st Airborne in Vietnam, but we couldn't have been too elite, as we lost that war, too, something our nation has developed into a fine art since WWII.
Otherwise, I was a Licensed Land Surveyor in California until retiring 7 years ago, but maybe that makes me an elitist, too.
I've seen the statistics and am telling you why they are bullshit. Can you fucking read. For example since its #1. The state of Alaska at $75 a barrel oil will contribute approximately $2B or $2,700 per/capita in royalty payments. Federal royalties on this one natural resource alone is more than their income tax contribution. That's where you are an elitist. You think income tax is the only means by which states contribute to federal revenue. The small resource states contribute more to federal revenue through royalties on natural resource than they do from income tax. Until you have statistic that includes all sources of revenue to the federal government your statistics are bullshit!
Furthermore the other side of the ledger is bullshit!
"Alaska
Federal spending per capita net of income taxes: $15,197
Total federal spending per capita: $17,762
Federal income taxes per capita: $2,565
No state in the U.S. received more money per person from the federal government than Alaska. One contributing factor is that the state had the second-highest figure for defense spending in 2010, at $7,337.59 per capita."
So almost half of the per-Capita spending that your dumb as claims is mooching is actually DOD maintaining a huge military presence on one of the most strategic locations in the entire god damn wold?

Agreed as far as racism goes but as you see in studies of mental illness these are a far smaller minority.
Although I have never understood how ethnonationalist socialists white people are right wing and ethnonationalist socialists black people are left wing. Do know that the famed early black leader Marcus Garvey considered himself a fascist? And he isn't wrong FYI.
