hy must leftists conquer entire nations? Why do they get so angry at anyone who resists their ideology? Why can’t they just build a new nation filled entirely with fellow leftists?

It really shouldn’t be this difficult for Marxist-socialists, communists, “green energy” fanatics, “diversity, inclusion, and equity” cultists, and bureaucracy-worshiping globalists to build a regulatory paradise based on the “woke” commandments of their secular faith.

There are more than enough power-hungry leftist politicians in the European Union, the United Kingdom, Canada, and the United States to construct the all-powerful central government that they desire. Career bureaucrats in the U.S. have filled the administrative state with so many sub-agencies, boards, working groups, and miscellaneous programs that nobody in Congress could create an organizational chart accurately diagramming the bureaucratic blob. The European Union — a supranational shrine to bloated bureaucratic incompetence — has so many committees within its ranks that there are surely a dozen such committees studying why the Union has so many committees!

There are more than enough lefty billionaires — including George Soros, Bill Gates, Neville Roy Singham, Michael Bloomberg, Tom Steyer, and Howard Schultz — to put up the seed money for their communist utopia. Heck, Western central banks essentially exist to manipulate markets in favor of the left’s pet causes, such as how best to funnel taxpayer dollars into the bank accounts of leftist billionaires who lecture the world about “global warming,” “white supremacy,” mandatory COVID shots, and the need for open borders and online censorship. Wall Street and City of London firms are more interested in companies’ “social credit scores” and ESG bona fides than the traditional metrics of whether a business can generate profit and a return on investment.

There is a veritable glut of far-left scribes churning out propaganda for every prominent news publication

I nominate South Africa. Certainly they can try to create utopia there.

There are a few things to be thankful for this Monday morning.

Here is a reminder of one. This post is 10 years old today.

They are basically insecure people. They need constant reinforcement and praise.

[BitWielder1]

Because commie nations can't survive on their own, they need capitalist neighbors to fund them and take the blame for everything.

[ComputerGuy]

Did we dodge a bullet, or what?

[Jonty30]

She better hurry up.

Leftists tend to be pagan cultists. In early Christianity, the pagans routinely persecuted, tortured, and executed Christians who would not sacrifice to pagan gods.

You mean it’s not? /s/

There was a time when SA was not only producing an agricultural export, there was enough surplus to share at home.

Now look. SMH

[brownsfan]

Because the left is so supremely confident that everything they believe is how things should be done, that any deviation is a direct insult to them. Exactly like muslims.

[Red Badger]

A liberals entire social outlook is predicated on the possibility that somebody somewhere is having a good time enjoying their lives and we must stop it.................
