What I find bizarre is the free-roaming, amorphous, and dispersed hatred and resentment of the ... right. I hesitate to call them right-wing, because their political allegiance seems rarely to be based on classic political lines. Though they are "classic" political motivations of modern British democracy.
I suppose I am, indeed, referring to that strange class, the Daily Mail voter. They hate, yes they really do hate, and fear, a whole range of figures. But those figures aren't so much the Left, but rather those they perceive as being unjustly enabled by the Left.
They hate the wealthy, whilst simultaneously desiring that wealth, and admiring it, they hate the poor (particularly those just below them, I suppose out of fear), they perform mental gymnastics to differentiate between the obscure objects of their imaginings, and the people they have met who fall into these categories ("Oh, I don't mean you, you're different.").
And their political allegiance seems to spring from this psychological terrain of fear and misidentification. Often voting, altruistically (!) against their own interests, and indeed in a politics of resentment (which is the charge they mount against those voting Left-ishly).
It's not a pretty sound, as they squeal indignantly and froth. But it isn't, particularly "The Left" they hate.
Hate is a very strong word. It points to emotional and visceral reactions, rather than political rationality. I think I associate it with what happens when figures get abjected, and when there are attempts on our emotional responses. I've seen a lot of abjection in the media towards GB - which has not been nice. And the DM is not squeamish about evoking those emotions.
Of course, I don't mean anyone on mn. I'm sure none of us fall into that category.
