WIST Quotations<p><a href="https://wist.info/roosevelt-theodore/77323/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">A quotation from <b>Teddy Roosevelt</b></a></p><blockquote>The true friend of property, the true conservative, is he who insists that property shall be the servant and not the master of the commonwealth; who insists that the creature of man’s making shall be the servant and not the master of the man who made it. The citizens of the United States must effectively control the mighty commercial forces which they have called into being. There can be no effective control of corporations while their political activity remains. To put an end to it will be neither a short nor an easy task, but it can be done.</blockquote><p><b>Theodore Roosevelt</b> (1858-1919) American politician, statesman, conservationist, writer, US President (1901-1909)<br>Speech (1910-08-31), “The New Nationalism,” John Brown Memorial Park dedication, Osawatomie, Kansas</p> <p>Sourcing, notes: <a href="https://wist.info/roosevelt-theodore/77323/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">wist.info/roosevelt-theodore/7…</a></p><p><a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quote</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quotes</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quotation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quotation</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=qotd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>qotd</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=teddyroosevelt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>teddyroosevelt</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=theodoreroosevelt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>theodoreroosevelt</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=conservative" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>conservative</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=wealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wealth</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=bigbusiness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bigbusiness</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=business" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>business</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=corporations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>corporations</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=lobbying" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>lobbying</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=politicalpressure" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>politicalpressure</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=property" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>property</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=regulation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>regulation</span></a></p>

Different Than<p>Trying to understand MAGA :</p><p>First, it's not one thing. It's a swirling mass of beliefs, values, and loyalties with a big clump right in the OMG Trump Is My God center but also many people closer to the edges, ideology-wise. However, the diversity is masked by the next point, below.</p><p>Second, the most important value--no matter what a Republican says--is tribalism. This has almost 100% overlap with Loyalty To The Leader, because that's how this tribalism works: a powerful mix of conformity, obedience, and constant striving to gain status within one's right-wing group, or just not be thrown out of it. This is the "value" that supersedes all others. Many conservatives are unaware of this, even if their behavior fits the pattern 100%.</p><p>Why don't conservatives speak out when even conservative values are being trampled by the mobsourced/strongman "agenda"? Because to do so makes them suspect. It reduces their status within their right-wing community, and they get little messages suggesting they're close to betraying the group. If you betray the group, it's worse than if you were a damn liberal. Betrayal is the worst crime in tribalist thinking.</p><p>Conservatives want to be seen as rational and evidence-driven, but we've all noticed how quickly that falls apart if the logic or evidence doesn't go their way. They shift strategies, often landing on repeating (or shouting) some version of "MAGA fuck yeah!" or "Fuck you."</p><p>They want to believe they are moral and kind--and I think, like most Americans, they generally are--but that also falls apart if pitted against group identity, loyalty, and status. Conservatives want to believe they are "pro-life," anti-corruption, protectors of children, and opposed to "sexual immorality," but we've all seen how a hundred million Americans have either cheered or carefully said nothing as the leaders of their party and movement have violated these principles over and over. Tribalism wins.</p><p>When a Republican (or "libertarian") says "The evidence shows..." or "Think of the children" or "Common sense says..." I think they believe those things, for a moment. They will also throw them out completely and seem confused and annoyed that you want them to continue the thought after it no longer serves the "MAGA good others bad" or "Trump leader good" narratives. </p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/maga" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>maga</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/conservative" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>conservative</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/uspol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>uspol</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/tribalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>tribalism</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/loyalty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>loyalty</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/betrayal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>betrayal</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/uspol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>uspol</span></a></p>
