Mainly because Conservatives tend to be NORMAL....
I’ve had much experience with mentally ill people in my life and they almost always lean Leftward....They are almost never happy and make it their life’s mission to share their misery.
The majority of celebrities truly are mentally ill, insecure a-holes who feel the need to rule over others to mask their fear.....There are of course exceptions.
Makes me think of Randy Travis’ great song: “Better Class of Losers”.
New York and Hollywood could fall into the oceans and we would not miss them.
That’s what really ticks them off.
We’re totally debt free in a 2700sf house with a 1000sf woodshop, living in a small town in the Rocky Mountains.
Please explain to me why living in the Bay Area or LA (been there, done that) with those residents would be a better experience. You’ll have to use monosyllabic words; we’re not very smart.

Cliche’s aside, I disagree that people in ‘mid america’ are ‘less ambitious’ it’s just that there ambitions are focused elsewhere than that of the ‘elites.’
What is the slam on ‘mixed martial arts’ about? Was it targeted to a particular person or group or was it just a random thing. I don’t follow pop culture enough to know.
The elites’ shallowness can’t navigate deep feeling and thought, let alone the products of hard work. Not even with million$ or billion$.
It is, very simply, the sin of “pride.” Our Jewish/Christian progenitors identified this many millennia ago. There isn’t really anything new to be said about what people like Meryl Streep are thinking.
Like all sin, Pride is ever-present and takes a thousand different forms, it appeals to our ego, and therefore easily comes to our fallen human nature.
When people ‘hate’ the way the elites do, it is nothing more than a reflection of the absolute loathing they feel for themselves.
Which is why we see time after time the stark difference in the way a conservative ages vs the way a liberal ages.
That was a great essay on the USA’s cultural divide Salena. Thanks.
Most of us just tolerated her and couldn't respect her for her conduct. Really, she was just pathetic.
In the end she lived and died alone.
Bottom line... these BS celebrities think we are not sufficiently envious and respectful of them .... period. In fact we only laugh at them.
Because we’re unwilling to march docilely into their ovens.
to be even more precise maybe,
the leftist elites are jealous of how happy many Americans would be to just be left alone and allowed to live in their little 1500sqft houses in peace...without Obamacare, anti-Christian and anti_-Jewish propaganda krap coming out of the White House, constant violations of their constitututional rights (including 2d amendment but also 1st, 4th, 5th, 9th, 10th, 12th, etc) and tons of new taxes and regulations
We're inferior.We're inferior to *them*,we're inferior to every military age moslem male living here,we're inferior to every pervert who thinks that he/she can change gender,we're inferior to every welfare parasite,regardless of birthplace,in the country.
These people have to keep the poor down to keep their power.

It's also why Leonard Cohen lived near South Central and NOT in a Hollywood mansion.
We don't envy Meryl Streep... we pray she overcomes her hatred of her fellow citizens - people she's never met. She's become a disappointment. Sad!
Perhaps we know something Meryl Streep doesn’t. Namely, we all die and everything is zeroed out. We will all come to God as poor sinners to be judged by our character. I’m sure she will be shocked that her “charitable” donations to the fine arts museum doesn’t carry the clout she thought it would.
