For a whole lot of people in the US, they align with whichever party opposes a value or principle which they hate.
What precise terminology do we use to label the objects of our aversion, and what is the root of such disdain?
Phobias?
Pet peeves?
Personal experiences?
Cultural or societal norms?
Natural instincts?
Evolutionary responses?
I chose the term "values" purposefully as it encompasses the notion of voting against certain principles held by others. This is due to the fact that for some individuals, it aligns with their own values to oppose these differing beliefs.
