I think young libs act this way because their political philosophy is based upon the false notion that they know more than those who came before them, thus the label “progressive.” It’s also why they have no respect for America’s founding principles nor its history. In their minds, none of that matters, and the history is probably all wrong anyway, because THEY weren’t there to write it. Which is why they focus so much on erasing everything that came before them, and replacing it with the new leftist “utopia” that they can take credit for.

Incidentally, I’ve noticed a strange offshoot of this phenomenon. Young millennial leftists have resurrected all sorts of long-dead conspiracy theories and believe fervently in them. Many of them seriously believe everything from the Earth is flat, to the moon landings were fake, to a really odd one I saw where they believe that jets don’t really fly by burning fuel, and on, and on, and on. My theory about this is that this is another manifestation of their desire to demonstrate their “intellectual superiority” by appearing to have discovered something “new” that runs contrary to conventional wisdom. This provides them a platform to pontificate and lecture those “fools” who, for example, believe that we actually did land on the moon. It fluffs their ego by making them believe that they possess special secret knowledge that mere mortals can’t possibly understand. Whether they realize that all they’re actually doing is just recycling decades and even centuries-old myths, and that there is nothing new about their thoughts at all is unclear.

These leftist kids are just like new-agers (and many are that as well). Just as in the new age movement, they are 100% self-centered, and everything they say, think, and do is focused on themselves. They also try to short-cut the effort necessary to acquire actual knowledge by just deeming themselves “enlightened” on any and all subjects. And they are constantly on a mission to demonstrate their “enlightenment” by lecturing and demeaning people who they view as their inferiors. It’s no wonder people like this are constantly itching to persecute, imprison, and even kill those who they deem inferior. They have no less a god complex than did the Nazis, and are perfectly primed to be willing subjects in a leftist dictatorship.
