Understanding earthlings 1: Anatomy of right wing daydreamers

1. -isms as wish fulfilment 
People on earth followed/ believed in many different '-isms'. Communism, hinduism, capitalism, secularism, dadaism and so on.  These -isms were short cuts. They allowed for the believer to accept solutions without having to engage in empathetic discourse and recognition of an individual as a free yet malleable agent. They allowed them to accept solutions without a clear understanding of assumptions or use of consistent reason. Now we know that it is prudent to be sceptical of all -isms even if one agrees with most wishes that these -isms propose to fulfil. (and now one should not say that everyone should be sceptical, because that will turn into another -ism.)

2. A divided planet
In a lazy intellectual divide (because you must divide) people on the planet earth were divided as either 'left wing',  'right wing' or 'fence sitters'. Right wingers were assholes who benefited from the status quo and prevailing inequality. They rationalised every injustice as long as it served them. and they rallied against any action that served 'the others'. Their identity was defined in opposition to 'other' people. The other could be anyone - other gender, people with other opinions/ beliefs, other nationality (nation was an artificial concept created by marauding savages from Europe who colonised much of the globe. the defining feature of which was geographical reach - ('property!' - the idea of which made them drool and froth at their mouth.) and so on. So essentially any person with divergent view about anything could potentially be the other.

The left wing were idiots who dreamt of equality for all human beings. They weren't idiots for dreaming that. They were idiots because they often lost the meaning of equality in search of equality. The master day dreamers that they were, they constructed artificial intellectual edifices, the weight of which bore them down often enough.

The fence sitters were the most sane of the lot.

But today, we will talk about the right wingers. partly because they are such amusing creatures, partly because they were just too fucking loud. and sentient being that I am, I must react to their loudness.

3. Delusions of right wingers
'Right wing' people were bipeds from planet earth who tended to identify themselves strongly with regressive and often fictitious characters and beliefs that were invented to maintain status quo. You would most often find them in the privileged sections of the society,  though often they were blind to their privileges. 

Spotting a right winger:
Their defining traits were,
1. They never tried to improve themselves. the only strategy they knew was to bring the other person down. 

2. They could never articulate a straight answer. Their thoughts are like those little bubbles that try to escape your probing touch. Their thoughts are forever trying to escape reason.

3. They believed in past glories because they needed to believe in them. if they didn't, their identity shattered. They were highly invested in manufactured beliefs and myths. They 'belonged' not to the present day and moment. They forever 'belonged to manufactured narrative of ancient glories.
4. If one was to confront them with a difficult question, one gets to see how a person suppresses consciousness (ego) with the id. Their expressions tell you - "don't you dare disrupt my daydream". They are like little children who refuse to get out of the blanket for fear of unknown monsters. Their daydreams are the blankets that they forever carry over their brains.
5. They refuse to acknowledge individuals. In the convenient narrative that they believe in, there are heroes and villains. A 'they' that is unfeeling, unyielding out to get them.
6. In their imagined narratives, they are forever the victims even when they are obviously more powerful. The weaker section is always portrayed as villain out to get them. This was a cognitive trick to hide their guilt - hide from their identities the sins they committed.
7. They had ears. But seldom could they listen. 

Unless someone was singing paeans to them. (even if false) A saffron coloured filter resting in their ears filtered out words that did not contribute positively to their identity.  

8. They were quick to get offended. identity for them was sacrosanct. Any slight to their imagined wonderland or their chair or their self or their anything could short circuit their brains (Steam engine). 

4. Strategy to engage with them

Facts and rationality are lost on right wing bipeds. Steam for the steam engine. However if you must engage with them,  Mask the conversation as their idea_ an exceptionally brilliant idea from the fertile mind of the biped. Mask newness in the garb of old.  Say that a new idea is actually inspired from a proud practise of their ancestors.  Or frame it as an issue that can only be rescued by right wingers like them. Or if you have patience,  talk with them long enough.  No body can be that hopeless.
