No kidding. There is little or no inquisitiveness. There is little or no understanding or knowledge of history. There is little or no understanding of tyranny and how it grows. There is little or no awareness of how great Republics and empires grown and then collapse. There is little or no awareness that we are living through what will probably be the Great Collapse.

This is so true. I would say the two characteristics of these people is an infantilism that insists that their parents' faith in the Rat party is valid and so it will be theirs as well.

Next is an overwhelming ignorance of history and human nature. This keeps them loyal communists in spite of the odious nature and history of communism.

Lastly is a mental weakness and spinelessness that makes them repeat what they hear from fools on CNN and MSNBC as if they understood and believed it. They really are incapable of refuting the simplest and most obvious of fallacious arguments. This ties in to their conspicuous lack of humor: They can't process absurdities because they can't analyze or refute ANYTHING. Their brains are gristle. No neurons.

Truth is they are incapable of judging as good or bad what the communists on CNN or MSNBC say. They approve it also because they see other worms around them doing so.

"Infantilism" describes them to a tee. They continue to believe that socialism, communism and Marxism WILL work, that we CAN redistribute wealth to make everybody equal. It matters not to them that the most basic characteristic of the human is the desire to prosper, to get ahead, to own the fruits of your own labor, to look out for #1 (what they constantly call "privilege" and "greed").

It's reminiscent of the efforts to create "New Soviet Man" that was determined to forge a communist that denied all basic, inherent human traits. It doesn't matter to them how many times those systems failed in history because "they are going to put the 'right' people in charge and do it right."
