Why do conservatives want revenge for any little alleged slight liberals do against conservatives?

Their culture of being constantly conned requires that they aren't allowed to turn on their leaders under any circumstances. But they are still being robbed by their leaders, so on some level do recognize that they have less than they have earned, and are thus very prone to anger. Sadly the con artists anticipated this and leaned into that anger, convincing them to lash out at those who try to help by telling them they are being conned. This both keeps the con going and discourages the people who tried to stop it from trying again.

Same reason people get mad at cultural appropriation. They've been abused and mistreated so much in the past, slight things that are easier to demonstrate to outsiders are brought up as examples when bigger issues are ignored/belittled

a lot of conservatives are overly paranoid. They remind me of those rabid abused dogs that snap at humans trying to feed and pet them. They live in a cave of misery and obsession. No one wants your guns or your religion, just mind your business and stay out of mine thats all.

You mean justice?

Revenge is an antiquated and immature thing to desire

Actually study conducted by Jesse Graham, Brian Nosek and Jonathan Haidt says it's opposite.

The saw how the libs who claim to be for equality acts, and decided to give them the equality the libs claimed to want. Its to do them a favor. Conservatives are nice that way.
