What is wrong with these leftists?


Seriously? To my eye it’s all about envy and jealously of what they perceive the ‘bourgeoisie’, capitalists and previous emperors and kings had/have.

So they actively seek political power to gain the same things that they publicly decried on their way up the ladder of political success. And once they have the ‘things’ they just can’t help themselves. They have to flaunt them in the faces of everyone to show that they have ‘made it’.

Yes, it’s a character flaw, but nearly every politician in the world has the same one. So in the ‘circle’ it’s considered the norm. To the rest of us, it just one excess after another.

It’s simple, really. Leftism is a common manifestation of mental illness.
