Hip Hop lyrics
Lazy minds, aka a lack of common sense.
Guilt is also a reason, so is hatred of the nature of reality (i.e hating having to earn one’s keep by trading value for value)
sloth
Its great when you think you’re going to be a taker rsther than a giver
When they realize they’re going to be a giver, many decideit’s not such a great idea after all.
If you have a kid who is a socialist tell them you are going to give half of their college stipend to someone else. After all they get $XX and the other gets none. It’s not fair. *grin*
5) They learn in college that if they adopt the attitudes of their profs they’ll get good marks and get ahead. Everybody is striving to out do each other in virtue signaling and become one of the elite.
6) Being a socialist is cool because you get to talk sh1t to the man. And you get to pretend you’re an important undiscovered artist/intellectual because you get really good vibes from people who think your ideas are way out there... like way cool.
We won the Cold War but never bothered to teach the lessons learned by design. The left believes Socialism can and will work in America.
It’s rarely the productive folks who want piles of handouts being given to the unproductive.
They are idealistic and gullible.
Americans see corporatists selling out to globalist Free Traitors™ and off shoring production and wealth creation to other countries destroying many small towns along the way. Also, they see the GOP and globalists importing hundreds of thousands of H-1b visa "workers" into the USA undercutting the American college educated STEM workforce simply throwing them under the bus. THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL TO MAKE ALMOST ANYONE CONSIDER SOCIALISM.
Liberal girls are easier.
Young people don’t turn socialist. They are trained by the state to be socialist, and then experience real life. Look at the 30-to-45-year-old age group. They’re almost as Trump-leaning as any other already, but in 11 years ago, when they were mostly the 18-to-30 year-old block, they were more than 2-to-1 for Obama over McCain.
Because the rules of Capitalism were broken, people got greedy instead of leaving enough for the middle.
Not to mention the amounts being paid to the public sector.
It is not sustainable. Those that have the power to get something better than the crumbs they have been left will go with socialism.
Short answer: Greed in the system.
I could have been considered a Socialist up until I was about thirteen. I moved to the left-center until I was fifteen, at which point I continued to move to the right until sixteen, when I was diagnosed with a couple serious illnesses and stayed solidly center-right. Now I identify politically as Libertarian.
It was idealism and naïvetè. I thought of what was “fair” for all. As a child, you think, “Everyone should have the same income, right? Then they have what they need and nobody will have too much.”. Of course, that’s not how that works, proving just how childish Socialism really is. There’s a reason the Greeks had a dual meaning for “utopos”. Utopia simply isn’t possible given Human nature.
On number 3; “my favorite music, sports and other celebrities like socialism and leftism so it must be true”.
Of course it is kid, they are already RICH, they can afford to love STUPID IDEAS!
I will concede; they worked for their riches, even if I think they are overpaid.
minds sabotaged by leftist academics...
a great reconning is coming some day to the scoundrels - funny if its from the hands of those they misled...
My mom was all for the gov’t doing everything. My dad was conservative as his father started a business and had to deal with gov’t and the teamsters.
When my parents retired they started 3 business’s over the years. She soon became conservative after dealing with gov’t red tape and employees.
The real world will turn kids into conservatives.
