Apropos of another conversation, if progressive/left wing people got our ideal world, we would be happy.

if the hard right got their ideal world, they'd be miserable as fuck, because their worldview is centred around constant outrage at the state of the world and having an "out group" to rant about.

in reply to Sarah Brown

I don’t think the majority of them would be miserable in a sensible socialist ideal world, as the goal isn’t to make one group miserable but rather make everyone happy.

That’s the difference for me, anyone who needs to make others miserable to feel joy are terrible people who shouldn’t be in charge of anything anywhere.
