Astonishing, but not surprising.

To me, one of the prominent characteristics of Leftism is the chronic carrying capacity of a high level of cognitive dissonance in an individual, to such a degree and over such a length of time that it manifests itself in various forms of mental illness.

I have simply come to disregard this distinction and view leftists as mentally ill, since it is a distinguishing characteristic of the Left. This woman qualifies.

If it ever came to it, and those people she supports achieved positions of power, her record of not raising her fist in solidarity would result in her being one of the people rounded up and destroyed. She would be screaming in anguish and puzzlement as they dragged her away “Wait! I am on your side! Why are you doing this?”

Even though history is chock-full of examples of Leftists in power that accurately predict this, it will be a surprise nonetheless, since to Leftists, history is only to be destroyed, ignored, or shaped to serve a political purpose.

Yep. That’s what I’ve noticed in my family. There is no bridge too far.
