Political Question Are Republicans inherently selfish?

Not referring to every individual obviously but as a whole, compared to democrats/independents they seem to really only care about themselves or their immediate family and pretty much have a “f**k em” attitude towards literally everyone else. Does anyone else feel this way?

This would explain why so many are against social policies but have no issue dumping much more money into the military instead, for example.

Christianity (and religion as a whole) has been built on societal traditional values, which naturally limits women's rights, choice and free will. But yeah it contradicts what Jesus stood for as a whole. He fed the hungry, healed the sick and cared for the sinners. Modern Christians oppose social programs to feed the hungry, have universal Healthcare thats accessable, and shame sinners or talk down to them.

Which is why it’s a cult. Dead stop. It is and always has been a way to control people.
