Today’s Left is at peak political insanity. Who could imagine massive rallies supporting government bureaucratic bloat and wasteful spending? Or that young women, undoubtedly feminists, protesting on behalf of Muslim terrorists? Why do public officials defend boys participating in girls’ sports? Why would climate activists vandalize Tesla despite the company’s stellar environmental record? Meanwhile, college professors toss around terms like “Nazi” and “fascist” in ways divorced from their actual meaning. Why is a free sex-change operation for incarcerated illegal migrants a riveting presidential campaign issue?
Such madness defies rational explanation. America is not in an existential crisis. For nearly everyone, the day-to-day reality is nearly identical to the far less hysterical Biden era.
These events exemplify the “March of Dimes” phenomenon. The March of Dimes was a charity that beginning in the 1930s, raised money to eliminate polio. Thanks to its funding, vaccines were developed, and by the 1970s the disease was virtually eliminated in the United States. Mission accomplished, but what would happen to these employees and their organization? After some false starts, the charity refocused on eliminating birth defects, and it was back in business. The March of Dimes phenomenon is what happens post-success -- finding a new mission.
The current Democratic Party suffers from the March of Dimes phenomenon. The New Deal began by President Franklin Roosevelt in the 1930s has almost entirely been enacted and is sacrosanct. We have social security, unemployment insurance, protection of labor unions, a degree of national health insurance, multiple consumer protection laws, bank regulations and countless other “New Deal” policies. Similarly, the Democrat president Lyndon Johnson’s massive “Great Society” directed at reducing poverty is also an inviolable part of the status quo. Nobody questions such programs as Head Start, Washington’s aid for local schools, and all the rest.

The left really wants to use issues to burn down Western Civilization.
They are as nutty as squirrel shit.
.
Not really. The original and originally not stated goal of the party was communism. Still is, just out in the open now.
remember friends that liberal activists have claimed for DECADES that conservative voters always vote against their own best interest never admitting that liberal voters ACT against their own best interests. read a trope recently about crooked politicians enlisting their voters as accomplices in the many crimes these politicians commit against their base voters. just can’t quite remember how it went. read on a t shirt once “never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups”. thing is that without the leftside media to magnify how many really are on the loonytunes side of life one wouldn’t even know how few per capita there are in real life.
They haven’t peaked. they’re not even 1/2 way up the mountain
Democrat values:
“Grift is good.”
are you really confident this is their “Peak”??
I wouldnt bet a red cent on that one!!
BTTT
At yesterday’s cabinet meeting, RFK said that they were looking at AI to replace animal testing, so the next thing we may see is liberals in favor of torturing beagles, because anything the Trump administration does is “bad.”
It’s not a “peak.” The left has sunk into the hull-crushing abyss of perversion, abortion murdering evil, and treason.
Follow the money.
They’re just getting warmed up.
Their peak would be using nuclear weapons on modern civilization to usher whatever bizarre world they envision.

Hmmm......
I didn’t realize so many Freepers were college professors
Rush Limbaugh often said the left was the most fun to watch when they are out of power. Lately, they’ve been hilarious.
IQ follows a normal distribution. The average is 100. The (ironically) left tail says that twenty percent or so of the population are not very (uhm, struggling for a word) thoughtful. Decades ago, those people would have been exposed to a religion and education system that would have helped mold them into productive, helpful members of society. Religion has been destroyed. The education system teaches things like anal sex. Those people were seized upon by (ironically) the Left as useful idiots.
The solution is to take a few steps back. Stop the government from destroying Christianity and stop the education system from willfully creating dumb, manipulatable drones.
not a collage(yes ,spelled right) perfessor and yet after decades of independent study and Rush tutelage, I do understand deeply the differences between the various terms used to describe the various types of dictatorships. now if I had become a perfesser that understanding would of course be SEVERELY muddied to the point of believing that socialism is the Easter bunny wearing a Santa clause suit while delivering chocolate eggs to the masses paid for by money made on land stolen from people who don’t even know who the tooth fairy is. collage perfessory at its “finest” is a pile of rocks pounded into the heads of people who believe rocks are the future.
I thought the left’s insanity peaked years ago but I’ve since learned their stupidity doubles every couple years with no end in sight.
