…becoming cynical.
…the temptation to fight back.
…dividing the world into winners and losers.
…believing winning matters more than anything else.

…refusing to let it go.
…demonizing everyone on the other side.
…the desire to go beyond winning and harm your enemies.
…losing hope.
…looking for someone to blame.
