Persecution complex, as well. They so, so, so badly want to be in an action movie where they're the hero who fights against the Deep State. And the Deep State does evil things for the sake of being evil. It's what happens when you believe the British hated liberty and freedom, which is why the American Revolution took place.

The cognitive dissonance of defending the status quo while also dressing up in the aesthetics of the revolutionary founding of the country goes a long way to explain why American conservatives are so unhinged.

Well, they very much did/do. Just turns out the founding fuhrers weren’t very big on it either.
