I think it helps to have a nuanced opinion and make sure we don't spiral into an echo chamber. For my example, I've found that lefties are able to identify a lot of the right problems, it's just that they think gay space communism is the solution to it.
For instance, I completely agree that North American cities are really stupidly designed. The car-centric nature of them means you're stranded if your vehicle breaks down. The fact that you have to go into debt to buy this big stupid box to navigate your own city is ridiculous in the first place.
But when it comes to their solutions for this they can't separate their stupid idpol nonsense from it. My local city government keeps talking about "equitable solutions" to traffic and pedestrian fatalities. Typical "world ending, women most affected" type stuff.
Plus they keep droning on about high density housing which absolutely no one wants to live in. in their utopia we'd all live in depressing Soviet-style block apartments.
More importantly nobody taught them that success is not the result of either luck or perfidy.
That's the foundation of economic leftism. The idea that if someone has more stuff than you do that they attained it illegitimately.
Which of course has it's roots in satanic ideology. All the founding ideas of leftism go back to the devil.
Agreed. Reminds me of Sowell talking about how they see everything as a zero sum game (someone achieving success means that they are taking from someone else)
Well that's a somewhat larger kettle of fish, but yes. Economics is subtractive, but not a zero sim game and the two are often muddled.
