A couple of days ago, DMLD made a comment that was very thought provoking. So much so that I was going to reply to him, but my comment kept growing until it was long enough to become its own post. This is that post, and it went into the queue. So here we go:
Two things I’ve noticed about the communists/libtard left: 1, any physical action such as confiscation, mass incarceration into camps and etc, will be done by “others” like the police or military – not them, and 2, any theft of assets like money, 401K and etc, will also be done by “others” while, and I’m guessing here, they sit in their ivory towers being waited upon in lavish style because they are so smart. At age 23. They hate successful people because they know they do not have the backbone to struggle their way to success.
I have put quite a bit of thought into understanding those who oppose me. There are two groups of people who form the left:
First, there are the power hungry tyrants who want to run the world. These people are truly evil, they are the Stalins, Pol Pots, and the Hitlers of the world. They want absolute power with which to run the world. These people use the “useful” idiots in the other group as foot soldiers that they use to attain power. This group wants power- they aren’t interested in actually taking on the danger and labor it would take to be in charge- after all, what’s the point of being in charge if you have to do the work yourself? No, they are going to have others do it.
That brings us to the second, most numerous group: the spoiled rich kids who want to continue living the life that their parents allowed them to live, but don’t want to struggle for years to attain the wealth required in order to live that life. These are the people who demand free stuff while dreaming of a life where they can play video games and smoke weed while writing shitty poetry called “rap” and sit around the house all day.
This is the group that hates on “boomers” (a stand in for their parents) for not selling them large luxury houses at starter home prices. It’s why they rebel against restrictive rules, and it’s why they turn into little Prince(ss) Stampy Feet when they don’t get their way. They are just fine with violence and danger, just as long as others are the ones taking chances. The ones who ARE willing to commit violence are only doing so because they think they won’t be facing any resistance. This group is just a large collection of children who haven’t been forced by their parents to take any responsibility or take any action. They want government to take over where their parents left off, giving them free food, free housing, and free whatever. It’s the result of decades of everyone gets a trophy, helicopter parenting. Parents are so afraid of letting their children fail that they have never given them the opportunity to learn how to succeed.
Case Study
The issue is she is a moron, a welfare queen, and a Democrat. I think the first two are preconditions for the other. She grew up virtually as an only child and as Daddy’s little girl. By the time she was in her formative years, har brothers had moved out of the house and Dad was in his 40s and 50s and consequently wealthy, so as a result she was quite spoiled and privileged, the stereotypical spoiled rich white girl. She is a well meaning person, but she doesn’t have the capacity to understand the deeper issues involved in politics.
Anyhow, she worked as a waitress until her child support for her oldest daughter came to a halt. She never got child support for her second daughter because that dude is a complete deadbeat who is being supported by his mother. Once the welfare benefits went way down because she only had a single child, she had to get her first adult job and became an elementary school teacher (third grade). About that time, she also married her third husband and they had another child. So yeah, three children with three different fathers and spent most of her adult life living off the government. So here are her politics:
A few years ago, she told me that she didn’t like Ron DeSantis because he was against teachers, pushed through the “don’t say gay” law, and wanted to outlaw women having abortions. I pointed out to her that DeSantis pushed through funding to provide large raises for teachers in 2019, again in 2020, again in 2021, and yet again in 2022. The so-called “don’t say gay law” says nothing of the sort and merely prevents teachers from discussing sex with 8 year old children, and asked her why abortions are so important to her, seeing as how she is in her 40s and isn’t likely to get pregnant again anyhow.
Her reply was that her pay hadn’t gone up. I said, “But he provided the funding, so isn’t the fact that you didn’t get a raise your school board and union’s fault?” She replied: “Well, that isn’t what the union tells me.”
To sum it up, this woman has two grown girls (and although they are 24 and 18 years old, they are still immature girls) who still live at home and are showing absolutely no motivation to do anything but live at home (both of them have also invited their loser boyfriends to live in the house with them). The living situation is pretty odd- it’s this woman and her husband, their small child, the two older daughters, and the daughters’ boyfriends. Six adults and a small child living in a four bedroom house. It’s a great case study. Let’s talk about the situation.
First, the older daughter.
She is 24 years old and was left a trust fund by her grandfather to pay for her college. It was a good amount- about $300,000. She was his favorite grandchild. She turned 16 and said it was too scary to drive and didn’t get a driver’s license until she was 22 years old. When she turned 18 and graduated high school, she went off to college. She didn’t even finish the first semester before dropping out. She also tried cosmetology school, but dropped out of that as well. (Beauty school dropout…) Since then, she has had a string of jobs that she works for a short time before quitting or getting fired, mostly waiting tables. I once ate at the Chili’s where she worked and found out that the other servers thought of her as lazy- so lazy that the was relegated to working the take out counter. Even that didn’t work out and she lost that job. After a couple of years, she met a boyfriend and tried moving in with him, but they couldn’t manage to pay the bills with her periodic employment, so now they both live with her mother.
She went through all sorts of leftie phases. She was a vegan, then began liking meat. After that, she was a lesbian, then began liking meat. She was goth for a time. She was a college student for a semester, then in hairdressing school for a month. Now she is in her mid 20s, lives with mom, barely has a job, and bought a car using the trust fund money so her boyfriend could drive her around. Her mother thinks she should use the trust fund to pay for her sister’s college, telling her that her grandfather died before her sister was born and deserves the same opportunity for college she had. She still refuses. Instead, she uses the money as a slush fund. She refuses to help with rent, food, or any other expenses or chores around the house. She expects mommy to cook, clean, and do her laundry for her. No surprise: she is a hard core left wing Democrat and dresses like a walking freak show with purple hair and corsets. Her days off are spent smoking weed in the room she shares with her live in boyfriend in her mom’s house, as near as I can tell. Her mother gave her an ultimatum that she had to move out by a certain date. That date was October 1, 2022. To encourage them to leave, her mother pressured her husband to give the boyfriend a good job. He did so, and hired the kid without experience as a kitchen manager of a restaurant that the husband oversees.
The daughter is still living there, having her mother cook, clean, and do laundry for the both of them. The boyfriend AND the husband both lost their jobs. The husband got another one, albeit at lower pay, the boyfriend did not.
Then there is the younger of the two. I thought she had a future. I had been mentoring her because she told me she wanted to be a nurse. It turns out that she wants to make the money a nurse makes, but isn’t willing to put forth the effort to get there. She is the one who at age 14 had a conversation about economics with me. It started because she made the statement that people should get things that are necessary for free, because we all have a right to the necessities of life. She used feminine hygiene products as an example.
I told her that I wasn’t picking on her, but pointed out to her that, since no one was paying for tampons, there would be no money to pay the people who worked in the tampon factory, so why would anyone work there for free? Her first reply was, “Wait! There is a tampon factory?”
I said, “Well just where do you think tampons come from? Is there a tampon tree somewhere?”
She replied, “Well, in that case, I suppose you could get women to work there and pay them with free tampons.”
I said, “What would that be worth? If everyone gets tampons for free in your plan anyway, why would they want to work there to get the free tampons everyone else gets? How are the women working there going to eat, buy gas, or buy a house?”
She said, “That’s my point. Money is stupid. Why can’t everyone just trade and barter for stuff? Why should we all have to go to work just to be able to afford the things we need to live? The government can just print all of the money we need.”
So now she is a voting adult. The election of 2026 will be her first time voting. She still thinks we don’t need money and should just be given whatever we need. She hasn’t worked a real job yet, and likely won’t for awhile.
She graduated from high school and was actually on the honor roll, but is still struggling to pass the necessary exams to get into COMMUNITY COLLEGE. Those exams are just there to make sure you can read and perform basic math, which an honor roll student should be able to do, but that’s a different conversation. It looks like she is going to have to take remedial courses to even start community college. Oh, and her boyfriend that she’s been dating for the past month is moving in. With the rest of the family. Did I mention that she is also a Democrat and once told me she was a lesbian?
This is the voting base for the Democrats. Uninformed people who want free stuff. This is the reason why Democrats are slipping towards communism. The young people all think that communism means the government will take care of you while you sit around and do nothing, but they never make the leap to asking themselves where the government will get the food, iPhones, Internet service, and all of the material goods with which to care for them.
My next post in this series will be on how the Democrats are slipping further to the left.
