If they cared about others, they would learn how to better care for themselves. They are external-thinkers. If falling on their sword is the cool thing to do according to their media, then off they go.

Honestly not my experience in the real world. Most people very much want more control over their workplaces and lives in general. And a lot of conservatives do have accurate critiques of neoliberal parties like the Dems. It's just a matter of giving them a real option to improve things so they don't get misled into blaming the scapegoat of the week.

Obviously the internet is a different story, but "terminally online people love to argue forever" isn't unique to political leanings.
