Since I became aware of this many years ago, I have found it one of the most baffling and disturbing aspects of the Left.
I know Leftists live constantly with an enormous amount of cognitive dissonance in their minds (which explains their bizarre and seemingly unhinged behavior at times) but this one takes the cake for me.
Baffling because it seems to be driven by self hate in some odd way, and disturbing, because there are many leftists who accept it, but for them it is the price they feel they have to pay to be part of the Left.
Why, I don’t know, but it has always seemed that way to me.
“I know Leftists live constantly with an enormous amount of cognitive dissonance in their minds (which explains their bizarre and seemingly unhinged behavior at times) but this one takes the cake for me.”
The other thing with Leftists is that they spend their every waking hour looking for something to be “offended about!” The are always at the ready waiting to pounce on you for a position or comment you might make. It seem to be a great part of their entire motivational process. And “inequality” or “racism” seem to be the top “themes” in the cognitive dissonant lives.
