BEANER RANT: WHY LIBERALS ARE SO MISERABLE, PART I LOL. Yesterday I was kicked off a liberal group for the 10th time. Mind you, all 10 were different groups. Dont ask me why I venture into the land of unhappy people. Maybe to convert? Maybe to make their unhappiness more unhappiness. I think its because, as Rush Limbaugh always says, give liberals enough rope, and they will hang themselves every time. I love to expose their way of life to moderates who just might be thinking of becoming liberals. Kinda like a slap in the face. Dont know if it works. Dont know if I have converts. But its fun, though the wife tells me to stop bothering those poor liberals. Some nerdlinger, me, has discovered that people with Right-wing views tend to be happier than those with Left-wing views. DUH. Turns out that spending your youth sitting on a beanbag smoking a joss-stick and talking about how, like, capitalism is crushing us is not the only path to enlightenment. So, why are conservatives happier? My lifelong research (hobnobbing with liberals) found that Right-wingers tend not to blame their problems on other people – so they refuse to be depressed by victimhood. This makes a lot of sense. When you accept that you are your own master (though your real master is God, but, that comes in part 2) , then you feel in command of your own destiny and, so, more inclined to address your crises rather than bury them in political melodrama. The Left’s emphasis upon social solidarity is all very well, but reliance upon others can lead to inaction, disappointment or resentment – and the constant belief that capitalism is a global plot to deprive you of whatever you want in life inevitably grinds you down. Are the guys in ponytails who sit in vegan cafes strumming a guitar and singing sad, vindictive songs about Chuck Varela, really happy? Probably not. By contrast, self-reliance leads to autonomy which leads to getting stuff done and regarding your fellow citizens not as taxpayers or state employees but as individuals and friends. It’s full o’zip and p.o.s.i.t.i.v.i.t.y!
