Dumbassery, oppositional defiance, greed. The three MAGA pillars.
Funny thing, I was talking about politics with my psychiatrist. I mentioned that I thought more than a third of the population have oppositional defiance disorder. She said that normally ODD is not diagnosed in adults, only children. I think maybe the definition should be expanded.
consider many conservatives drop out in middle school, im not surprised.
I think you're on to something profound here. Of course it would be diagnosed in children because they're expected to be compliant and when they aren't, that motivates diagnosis.
It wasn't long ago that ADHD was a diagnosis for children and now it's diagnosed at all ages.
