A client of mine is Chinese.
Her grandfather had been a wealthy businessman in Shanghai when the communists took over.
During the “cultural revolution”, the man and his wife were taken from their homes, dressed in rags and dunce caps, paraded through the streets and pelted with excrement. It is possible that they were also tortured, but my client doesn’t know the whole story.
My client hates the ChiComs for what they did to her grandfather, yet she is a tofu-eating-tree-hugging-liberal and voted for obama.
It presents such a cognitive disconnect that I can’t fathom it at all!
Proof that liberalism is INDEED a mental disorder.
The thing about average Dems is they can't see what's coming. The elite Dems have managed to separate their constituencies into various little groups and pander to all of them. Union members, homosexuals, feminists, blacks, Hispanics, and druggies.
But even with all those groups they still manage to get many Americans who believe the Dem party is on the side of "social justice." Many of these people believe they're helping unfortunate people to a better life. Libs spread the lies about oppressed minorities, oppressed women, millions of homeless, homosexuals who are "discriminated" against, and the old reliable "evil, greedy" Republicans want to starve old people, kill children, and ruin the world. The global warming scam is a big issue for many of these people.
And most of these people believe things just run themselves...like the economy. They believe life has been unfair to them. Big Government needs to step in and help everybody. The richest country in the world with the most opportunities to rise in life, and these people feel life has been unfair to them.
