Very good post. Very telling graphics. I would add these from the 2020 election:

The concerns we have as conservatives seem rational and well founded.

What I found striking was the absolute moonbattery in the things they on the Left were and are concerned about.

Thank you.

Your graphics are also telling. Indeed, it highlights a linguistic pet peeve - “existential.”

Per Brittanica, although the defining characteristics of an existential crisis vary among psychologists, most agree that it is at heart a period of anxiety and conflict about purpose and life’s meaning. Some psychologists focus on the existential crisis as a question of identity and whom a person wants to be. Others say it revolves around feelings of responsibility and commitment versus independence and freedom.

Ponder that, while looking at the Them vs Us concerns. Broadly, we are concerned about things that are real-high taxes, bias, censorship, and so on.

They, however, are worried about things that exist in their heads for the most part. They gin up that fear so it migrates increasingly to other peoples’ heads.

Parenthetically, both sides fear election tampering-it’s the terminology that differs. Voter Suppression and Election Fraud are two sides of the same crime.

This is why every time I hear someone on the left/MSM call things Existential Crises, I think of Calvin and Hobbes.
