This whole "us Vs them, makers Vs takers, were the victims they're the powerful oppressors who control the media" etc. The funny thing is most of these people making these claims are well off white dudes. The last group of people on the planet who should ever be complaining about being a victim

It's like they think they're the nerds, but they really are the jocks
I tend to agree with you on on this except:

The most fervent haters seem to be the broke, do nothing white guys who are mad that they see people who they were taught are somehow less than them get educations, get better jobs, make more money, and maybe even become president.

That is the funniest thing I have heard in a long time, MOST "conservatives" will follow Rush and his ilk lock step without the slightest investigation.

Wingnuts are victims. They are victims of their own fear, victims of the media they seek out that plays to that fear reinforcing it, and finding an ever growing list of enemies. It doesn't matter if it is true, just that it sparks an outrage or crusade that keeps the fight going. It's why there are new scandals and rage daily just to keep things going.

If there were not, the introspection of seeing how hollow people's lives are after a lifetime of sparking arguments breaks some people.

Prove it. Of course, you can't, it's just more fantasy by the left. The only people I ever see quoting Limbaugh and Beck are liberals frothing at the mouth who just can't wait to claim that's what all Conservatives think. Liberals never investigate, they swallow anything on the media hook line and sinker, if it supports their position or not they'll crow til the cows come home about what they heard on TV or read online.

At least they're entertaining, in a mildly amusing way.
No, not all conservatives, it is actually the mainstream Republicans and fake conservatives who can't stop doing it.

+1
But, what can you expect from people who get their "news" from Colbert and Stewart?

Don't roughly 70% of Republicans actually admit they trust Fox News? It's not like that propaganda network is any better than Rush. It's the same crap being pushed in a different medium.

Incidentally, that united multimedia propaganda machine is probably what helps keep the right so uninformed and outraged. They get the same BS fed to them online, on TV, and on the radio. Nonsense drummed into their heads all day every day and most eat it up without ever asking themselves why reality doesn't line up with the BS they're being told.
