But all of it is derived from a kind of *ur* bigotry; a pure form of bigotry stripped of its limiting factors. A pure hate of people who do not submit, translated a million ways, cynically, so that the ruler can have an army of willing hate-slaves harming themselves and their neighbors.
Trump doesn't hate any minority group any more than he hates anyone who doesn't submit to him. AfD doesn't hate immigrants; they hate their solidarity, their community, and their lack of obeisance.

I've been thinking a LOT about this lately, because I've been seeing more and more people doing victory dances around apparent right wing hypocrisy, and it shows me that people really don't understand the *why* of the ascent of right wing politics, or how distant right wing pols are from right wing hoi polloi.
This is just my opinion, obv, but I look for common threads that drive behavior and goalsetting, and *Dominance* is the common theme across all right wing political movements.
