    i.e., transactional

    (O.P.'s reply)

    Yes, exactly!

    For a conservative, every interaction is a transaction. When a conservative shows kindness, they feel they have done the recipient a favor. They feel the recipient now owes them in some way.

    Kindness for the sake of kindness is derided as “some weak liberal shit”.
