Just about every killjoy I’ve met in the working world was a big time liberal.

Because the left-tard pols that run this state (California) can’t stand the idea of anyone having ANY fun.

Golf courses are closed. Beaches are closed. Walking trails have yellow tape across them. I saw a patrol car ‘guarding’ the tennis courts at the local park - the cop walked over to the courts twice to make sure they were empty. Saw another one “guarding” the entrance to a local state park for mountain bikers, hikers, dog walkers and joggers.

Meanwhile, our freeways have become “Beyond Mad Max” - I usually drive around 75 mph and I was passed as if I were standing still - by cars going at least 100 mph. - without a highway patrol car in sight (too busy making sure no one is having any fun...).

Indeed. Liberals don’t employ logic or reason by and large. They are guided almost exclusively by emotion. So if something FEELS right, they do it, no matter how illogical or misguided. It is sad to watch and very harmful for our nation, culture and society,
