Lately, however, I've become mad at the right, and have written about it with an anger not been present in my previous writings.

Anger originates in fear and fear is most often caused by a loss of control. In as much as your emotions are a reaction to a reality that your ideology has lost control, its not surprising you are even more angry as it becomes clearer that the loss in control is permanent.

What is surprising is that the author lets his emotions color and change his previous beliefs.

Well, I'll quote John Maynard Keynes. ""When the facts change, I change my mind. What
do you do, sir?"

How have I or my ideology lost control, may I ask?
