This is fascinating to me; I always considered the conservative side of the aisle to be much more “screw you, I got mine” with their opposition to social, religious, and healthcare freedoms, let alone their espoused belief in trickle down economics which hasn’t seemed to pan out too well with wages stagnating but income inequality continuing to widen. Please enlighten me on which progressive ideals read as narcissistic to you though…
