(Short cuts) Public servants or Public tyrants !

The left MUST work in government. Why? Because the private sector requires competence, and that is the one thing (above all else) the left knows it doesn't have.
That's why they hate debating. Debating requires an understanding of objective reality and a mastery of logic along with an ability to relate to the audience. That's why whenever you see them in a debate, they perform exactly like they do on the campaign trail. In other words, it's just name-calling, threats and a constant dog-whistle to their programmable slaves that revenge violence is the most satisfying form of violence. Remember though, they are getting revenge against a Universe which punished them with "life". Think about that. They love death and hate life, therefore they need revenge against a Cosmos that allows life to triumph over lifelessness.
Because the political right and center refuse to push back against the political left, you and I now live in a world where every person with power is an extinctionist psychopath. Every nightmare that Kafka, Orwell, Huxley and Rod Serling ever had ... is the reality 95% of us are now living.
