I know people who are leftists, and they are not politicians. Some are in my family. They like obama, and they believe everyone should have healthcare. They think gays should have the right to marry, and they feel bad that they can’t.
To keep peace in the family during holidays, you can’t talk politics. My mother used to get upset at the arguments and asked us not to discuss politics anymore. We honor her wishes.
Leftists are living in the past. Their dreams of socialist utopia have been abandoned by most of the World. They haven’t learned a thing in the last 40 years.
At the risk of being repetitive, it is social snobbery that keeps them going. The drug of believing yourself superior to the rest of mankind without having to do anything to prove it.
When you’re surrounded by other left-thinking people, it is really really hard to have the social courage to doubt or disagree. You’ll be ejected from the herd and youi know it.
Better to talk leftist talk; after all, they have their hands on a goldmine, the incomes of ordinary people. They can drain the peasants now, for every penny. So it’s better to be on their side, right?
It’s a new aristocracy. The old aristocracy used to just beat people up and say hand over your harvest, p[easant, but leftists have learned to lie with incredible talent.
