Because republicans live in a culture that ignores basic principles of morality, logic, and science, their worldview is fragile and constantly guarded.
- A high level of apprehension
- Extreme fear of and disdain for persons of others races, religions, sexual orientations, or lifestyle choices different from their own
- Constant worry that their self-interests will be damaged by the actions of agents outside of their culture
Hypothetically it is possible that some republicans might become capable of thoughts other than fear, disdain, and self-interest.
Certain conditions would have to be present for such a transformation.
- A situation that strongly compelled compassion for another person yet completely conflicted with their preconceptions of that "type" of person.
- A situation in which if they acted upon their compulsion to compassion their self-interest would be at great risk.
