The best way i can describe it is just human nature deferring to their natural instincts of putting off the inevitable. Where The “right” offers a one way ticket to destruction, the dems want to ensure we have a couple more decades to live at the cost of slow and painful suffering as we get sucked into the void of capitalism.
this is the same thing as boomers who just want to keep the system going until they die because it has mostly been ok enough for them. (despite the millions killed along the way - we don’t talk about them)
