Leftism is the political and cultural manifestation human evil. It didn’t start with muh Marxism.
Yes, it started with Rousseau and the Jacobins in France.
But it isn't just a manifestation of evil, it's a warped perspective on humans that inevitably generates evil.
You can go back to the Roman populares, where politicians bribed poor urban citizens with bread and circuses. Leftism is a recurring phenomenon, not a modern proper noun.
If that's what you want to talk about, don't call it Leftism, because Leftism is explicitly French. Parisian to be exact.
