Sense of Entitlement

Donald Trump's most enduring legacy: The right-wing has a dangerously overblown sense of entitlement | Salon.com

The aspect of the Capitol insurrection that continues to carry the most fascination is the way that most of the people involved seemed utterly unafraid of potential consequences, legal or otherwise. The FBI has already charged more than 100 people for their involvement in the riot, and they are, according to the Washington Post, "mostly individuals who revealed themselves as participating in the Jan. 6 riot through social media boasts". Most people committing crimes desire anonymity, but these folks acted with utter impunity, buoyed by their belief that, if an election didn't go the way they desired, they could simply demand it be thrown out, as if they were telling a waiter to send an unsatisfying dish back to the kitchen.

After reading a few articles on the LRB, I must add self-pity and self-victimization to the overblown sense of entitlements the right-wing seems to have.
