Some differences between conservatives and liberals, and the Florida school shooting

Bookworm has written a profound piece about the differences in worldview between conservatives and progressives. She links to an article by Dennis Prager at Town Hall.
Unhappy conservatives generally believe they are unhappy because life is inherently difficult and tragic, and because they have made some unwise decisions in life.

But unhappy liberals generally believe they are unhappy because they have been persecuted.

Bookworm covers a lot of subjects in this piece, including this:
Just as I believe in individual responsibility, I believe that nations and their people must at some point be responsible for themselves. Moreover, I would be happy to export to them my winning values — hard work, education if possible, marriage, honesty, etc. — except that I’m told I can’t do that because . . . racism, colonialism, cultural appropriation, microaggressions, macroaggressions, toxic whiteness, cultural relativism, and all of the other Leftist shibboleths that destroy healthy societies and keep unhealthy societies in a permanent state of sickness.

Bookworm links to a blog called Stately McDaniel Manor, which has detailed coverage of the Florida shooting and this:
