Not for nothing, it was 100% upvoted until your comment came in, suggesting something entirely different from what I wrote. It wasn't the best narrative structure, my bad.
But the ultimate point is also that important, and that deep. I don't think many even have the frame of reference that I am coming from, because no one really talks about values in any meaningful context.
The word values are as deeply meaningful to an American as the phrase "as American as Apple Pie". It sounds wholesome, but lacks complete depth for those that didn't live in the era that the phrase was coined from.
If anything, it is a description of a simple fact of the right vs. left dilemma.
Like it or not, the left and right have deficiencies and strengths. The right is incredibly strong when it comes to having a moral compass and having faith/ an actual relationship with God.
The left, in turn, has an advantage with intellect (and I will emphasize that they absolutely do. People just need to know that there are other virtues that God demands apart from having raw intelligence), but greatly lacks a moral compass while being almost completely divorced with a relationship God (but if they are spiritual, it is often demonic).
Both sides have issues with character, but in different ways.
I have had many conversations with those on the left about this and havent had this much trouble grasping these concepts, which is why I actually get downvoted less on reddit than I do here - even though I am unquestionably on .win's side.
It reminds me of what Dennis Prager has constantly said since the 90s. There are two parties in this country: The Dangerous and The Stupid. I am a member of The Stupid.
