What Human Beings Organize Around

What a brilliant insight this is.

We search for reasons why conservatives are able to organize so much more effectively than liberals, and perhaps Chekov has nailed it right here.

Conservatives, especially those in today’s MAGA ultra-right, have a visceral hatred of dozens of different groups they find vile: liberals, intellectual elitists, non-whites, Muslims, LGBTQs, “corrupt” scientists, environmentalists, animal rights activists, those who dare question the power of the president, to name a few.

Indeed, hate is a powerful motivator. Let’s hope it doesn’t destroy us.
