This was something I had to learn the hard way. I had a friend who said he was a moderate when I first met him. Years go by, and as I find out his views, oh, he's a MODERATE leftist - as in a Bernie Bro / demsoc. I tried talking to him about woke progressive shit one time, and he said that it doesn't matter.
What you just articulated sums up exactly how they think. They never care about your views. No matter the respect you give them or consideration of their viewpoints - it's irrelevant, because to them, you are not on the same side.
Every single leftist sees you as an enemy. Their megalomaniac nature assumes that since their opinion must be the right one, you must be a retarded monkey by default.
The problem is that I don't think it's a personal failing for most of them. The issue is that the ideology itself is so radical and cynical that it basically only operates under those kinds of power-dynamic pretenses.They are all collectively lying about one thing or another so long as it gets them closer to seeing power, because they think that only power can actually solve their problems.
You're so fucking intelligent man.
