Most conservative pundits out there seem to all talk about how they wanted to do something specific with their life but it didn’t work out.
They like to blame the current systems and government for not doing enough to make them famous or popular or cool with the youth.
They then convince a bunch of people who are also unhappy but could have a lot of their issues with lack of time and resources fixed with money, that if they are unhappy while having money dumped in their lap than these normal people will be unhappy with it too. Hoping they fix some arbitrary reason they aren’t more famous.
I think they don’t even love the money anymore since it comes with the strings. They just are scared of who they would be without it.
I do think they just end up having to say whatever is needed and required of them to say to keep getting it and they eventually clock out and just exist in their own misery and reality as needed to keep it going.
