minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink28•2 months agoExternal locus of control. Bad things in someone’s life is not their fault, but the fault of whatever scapegoat. Can’t get a girlfriend? It’s women’s fault. Can’t get a job? It’s illegal immigrants. Can’t afford to do the things you like? It’s the government taking too many taxes. Whatever problem someone has, they are looking to blame someone rather than make any changes in their own life.
