Opinion: The Democrats have become the party of miserable, whiny grumps
NY Post ^ | April 29, 2022 | By Eddie Scarry

Posted on 04/30/2022 7:06:16 AM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer

When Elon Musk tweet­ed on Friday, “The far left hates everyone, themselves included!” the only thing he got wrong was his use of the word “far.”

The hatred, anger and resentment of liberals is not exclusive to the extreme Democrat. It’s now the entire party.

When was the last time anyone encountered a happy Democrat? They don’t exist. They’re perpetually miserable, annoyed that normal people have moved on from COVID, offended that anyone objects to public schools teaching 7-year-olds about sexual identity, and frustrated that their fetish with “critical race theory” (also known as “how to properly hate whites!”) isn’t as widely shared as they thought.

Consider the response to a Florida judge recently striking down the Biden administration’s loathsome air-travel mask mandate. Social media was immediately flooded with videos of flight attendants and passengers overjoyed that they had unfettered access to oxygen again. Liberals could only sulk.

“Wearing my mask no matter what non-scientists tell me I can do,” tweeted former Obama White House aide Valerie Jarrett. She included a photo of herself decked out in an N-95, hair pulled back alarmingly tight and one of the lens of her glasses fogged up from her covered mouth.

A perfect mascot for liberal misery.

I sent without comment Musk’s funny tweet aimed at Bill Gates to an old leftist friend - now he’s not talking to me.

Read any literature from the DIE groups. It is some of the most miserable stuff you will ever read.

In almost every instance of life they find a problem and them find a white group to blame their problem on.

It'd be interesting to see how the world would have turned out if European countries had not colonized the various parts of the world they did.

I have no doubt some other area would have done so. Japan tried with China and Korea and other parts of the Pacific rim.

The Mongols tried.

Yet somehow, whites are blamed for all the world's problems. It is because white colonialism is the most recent...or was it the most successful.

Where would the world be today without the influence of Western philosophy?

"Normal people avoid conflict. Liberals desperately search for it. All the time."

A perfect description of my liberal ex-wife.

Have become? They always have been.

Leftism is based on grievances, jealousy, resentment and a thirst for revenge. That’s all Marxism is and all it has ever been since its founder set pen to paper.

Positive ways of dealing with those grievances that are legitimate are never considered in leftist thought. Leftists cherish the feeling of being aggrieved or the notion that they are victims, and they spend their lives seething with anger.

That does not make for a pleasant personality (or even life…they make themselves miserable).

Most of the ones I meet are superficial, selfish, immature, shallow and pathetically ill-informed. It's like they're proud of their ignorance.

I have relatives like that

I have 2 relatives that are RATs. They are sanctimonious, horrible, human beings. Funny though, saw them at Easter and they were talking about the mistake they made voting for Biden. I told them they deserve every damn bad thing that happens to them. The made this pot of crap, swim in it.

I think Elon got it right.

They're ALL far left. Some just pretend they're not.

My cousins are like that but THEY will never admit voting for Joe was a mistake.

They are horrible, pro big-labor and incredibly racist, too.! BUT ... they voted for O’Bozo! (Hypocrisy much?)

The straw that broke the camel's back was them sitting here and screeching their politics to ME in MY OWN house! That takes nerve!

I don't know a single Conservative who has ever pulled such an ill bred stunt...yet I don't know a single Liberal who HASN'T!!

This isn’t new. They’ve always been that way.

I used to work around a lot of dems and they really were finding something to be offended and unhappy about. Even when 0bama won in 2008, they stayed perpetually POd and filled with hatred for McCain and Palin, especially Palin. Even to this very day, these same people are filled with rage whenever Palin’s name appears anywhere. Some of them still scour the net looking for mentions of her name and then work themselves into a blind rage about her. Naturally, they do the exact same thing about Trump.

When I turned 40 (83 now), I decided that liberals had one chance with me. That was to never allow full blown liberal attacks on me, my family and friends.

When I turned 50, I told my family, friends and good church members, I had zero tolerance for ranting and rude liberals.

My wife and sons joke, that was just the beginning.

Never pass an opportunity to remind a democrat they voted for a child groping nasty old pervert. Even better is having your smart phone handy to show them the “creepy Joe Biden” child groping videos.

There is liberal friend of a friend who just can’t stop getting ticked off all the time about anything. I avoid her but when I have to be around her I make it a point to piss her off. It is so easy. If she is having nice conversation she will inject something sure to start a discussion about politics. She flies in to a rage and gets even more outraged when I just laugh. All the liberals I have had to deal with are all the same. Insecure, lazy, and jealous.

And is, I'll bet, completely unable to see the irony.

Four of my younger siblings are liberals. With the exception of two of them, whom I still have some contact with I haven’t spoken to my youngest sister and brother in six years now.

They told me I was ‘’racist’’ for supporting Trump.

As I said, it’s been six years and not a word has passed between us.

Now I know how they felt in 1861.

And no sense of humor.

Liberals are some of the most dour, miserable wretches on the planet.

One of our younger siblings lost his wife of 50+ years last year as a probable secondary casualty of Covid.

He weighs the same as he did in high school and serving in Nam.

He is very athletic and had been playing tennis and pickle ball with a group for a long time.

A new widow joined their group. She is tall and very athletic like him. Both of them are longtime bikers (pedal).

They started having brunch together after matches or bike rides.

At their most recent and probably last brunch she wanted to discuss some things before their relationship evolved.

He told her to just ask ?s.

The first combo question was why was he supporting a racist like Trump and the Republican party?

At which, he stood up and paid for the check. He told her not to call or show up at his matches any more.

He now has Trump stickers for his new pickup truck.

He told my wife that he couldn’t believe how this woman changed in front of him at the restaurant.

She told, him that this woman didn’t change, that she was a true liberal and to be happy that it only cost him a brunch to find out.

A SIL told him the same thing as did his older brother.

I’m sorry for your loss.

Very smart of you brother to have avoided rough waters from the start.

What an arrogant woman. I would have merely argued how could a man so ‘’racist’’ build a real estate and hotel and construction empire everyone every man and woman of every color and place of national origin?
