8. Anger releases adrenalin and dopamine in the brain.

We have all (even those of us that rant on DU) have become addicted.

Our favorite pastime, TV sports, is viewing "winner take all" contests. Seriously...Our addictions to "winning" and anger is all about a "zero sum" game. None of us wants to identify as "losers".

Witness the guiding principle of the Republican Party. Nothing is more important than inflicting pain on liberals..NOTHING! Policy is just a tool for those ends.

By leveraging anger and grievance, MAGATS have been manipulated to vote against their interests. The quest provides the false taste of power to the powerless.
