Why are the leftists such elitist pieces of crap?

[Wraith]

Maybe this is a debating and arguing tactic of all retards, but I've been experiencing something for a pretty long time and it's been pissing me off. Have you ever had any discussion with someone from the left, even regular ol' democrats who don't identify with the words, feminist, liberal, progressive or socialist, and you bring up something about economics, morality, whatever. And without fail if you ask some of the most basic questions about why they are behaving the way they are (usually like a turd,) or why your values are bad and their values are good, I swear, it's almost 100% where they do this one tactic:

You're not as important as I am, therefore I am right.
You're not as popular as I am, etc.
You've not had as much sex as I do...
You're not as rich as I am...
Etc.

Almost without fail it's been like this for a long time. Yeah I know if you're on the left you're guaranteed to pretty much be either ignorant of the very things your side believes in or does, but I've been studying politics, religion, faith, morals, common sense and all sorts of stuff for over 25 years and way back when they used to make this claim that would be why they thought they were superior to you. I'm sure you've heard variants of it:
WE CARE ABOUT THE POOR AND THE MIDDLE CLASS. WE CARE ABOUT THE LITTLE GUY.
Then without fail the little freaks in a debate or discussion will down your ass and then clown your ass instead of standing up for the filthy vomit actions and beliefs they have. See list above.

So my question is two-fold:
Have you encountered this specifically as a trait of these arrogant turd burglars?
Where did that dedication to people who are "have nots" go? I'm guessing it was a lei and was never there.

Don't get me wrong, I was never under any delusion that it was a core principle for a lot of the elitist scum, but the rank and file now even act this way.
What do you think?

Because its the easiest type of activist to be. You dont have to go out and strike, you dont have to get arrested for being trash, you can get awya with political violence, you get reinforced for being "special" by politicians, the new media, celebrities, tech companies, colleges, all for having the "right: opinion.

You get all the attention and praise for being a lazy piece of crap on a computer at a starbucks and get the added bonus of being able to assault other people and get out the same day. Its a cult with a lot of reinforcement.

 

[Ughubughughughughughghlug]

Is it that Leftists are elitist, or that elitists are Leftist?

>hurr I don't like this group of people so I'm gonna make a thread circlejerking over how much I don't like them.

Amazing thread.

What point are you trying to make? That libtards don't actually care about the poor because...?

 

[Sīn the Moon Daddy]

Socialists legitimately believe that they have a moral duty to their ideology

Is it that Leftists are elitist, or that elitists are Leftist?

What about elite leftists?

Another thread with tard fight potential? Fuck yes.

There are elitists in all parties and nations in the world. In the US the media favors leftists, which is why we see them more often.

There are dems and former dems who deeply care about people, and aren't crazy. We just rarely see them.

 

[BoingoTango]

I mean of all the annoying shit that is unique to the left you seemed to have focused on shitty arguing tactics of all sides that are just common shitty arguing tactics.

What do you think?

Maybe it is in the nature of leftist thought

 

[I Love Beef]

I think the right term you want to use is fauxgressives, SJW fags, or Baizuos.

Those assholes don't care for shit about anything except their self image.

And what do I mean by Fauxgressives? I mean patronizing culturally myopic twofaced hypocrite as fuck white people who think they're doing the world a favor but are self important mighty whiteys without the direct racism angle which they protest against. Instead they use an indirect one, which is worse.

Because as soon as the factors of race and cultural differences kick right on in, "it's someone else's problem" and their ignorance just pops on right up.

 

[Dom Cruise]

Yeah, I've encountered that myself time and time again on the net.

It always comes down to ad hominem attacks with them, they always have to call into question your value as a person.

No matter how civil you try to keep it or how respectful you try to be, if you refuse to budge it's a 100% certainty they will throw it back in your face and shit on you in very vicious ways.

That shit stings, I don't know why they think vicious personal attacks are supposed to win you over to their side because it does the opposite.

 

[Clop]

If you look at people criticizing the left, they're going to concentrate on the worst of theirs. Meanwhile on the other side it's vice versa. You don't hear about the absolute mongoloids on the right if you are on the right, that's how your media feed works because it doesn't think you're interested otherwise.

This is a bit beside the point, but I'd argue that the Right is a lot more diverse than the Left, and that also makes it feel less like it's a group. Like, if a libertarian does/says something stupid, I don't think of that as "my people." If a religious fundamentalist does/says something stupid, I don't think of that as "my people."

You could argue that the Left has lots of variety (I'm sure Leftists themselves would), but it's all rather superficial and still boils down to basically just two flavors: social democracy or Communism variants.

Anyways, this is just to say that often times, Right-wing mongoloids don't stand out because they're not the observers' specific breed of mongoloid.

 

[kadoink]

Funny thing about groups and shit like this is that there was a time that the right was like this...only not this bad, they were bad and all but they never really got away with half the shit these pink booted thugs do now. The sad thing is the last time the left did this type of bullshit it was the 60s and 70s and they had some legitimate points, but they got too fucking weird and everything seemed to fall apart around the start of the 80s.

Well here we are and the same type of lunacy, now squared it seems, is back only this time rather than focus specifically on the government they're focusing on everything and everyone. The amount of power they've gained through infiltration and harassment is pretty impressive, but the thing is history repeats itself.

This group will cannibalize itself when things go wrong for them, a big chunk will self destruct at how reality isnt what they want it to be, and they're gonna have a self awareness stroke. But thats down the road, I dont know about you guys but I'm expecting to see political violence encouraged and justified by the media in 2020. It's gonna be a fucking weird ride too. :/

 

[DogEatDogFood]

Is not a thing about ideology or leftism: people who are usually very arrogant or full of themselves are gonna appeal to their own authority to defend their position. Is a common trait among people who are very insecure and their own beliefs. Sargon is not even a leftist and he is a textbook example of this

 

[Drunk and Pour]

Hmmm. In all my years of arguing about politics, I feel like I've been on the "left" side of the argument. It isn't until the last 5 or so years that I think the left has shifted away from me. Really, it's the focus on identity politics that has pushed me away, because as a straight white male, the left has decided I no longer matter. Also, turning freedom of speech into a right wing issue is a really dumb strategy for leftists.

Why has the left become more elitists? Probably because for all of my life, Democrats/left were portrayed as the good guys and Republicans/right were portrayed as the bad guys. It's become so ingrained in our cultural conscience that you only need to blindly follow Dem/left ideology without actually putting the effort into thinking about the ideology and why you agree with it, and that automatically makes you "right" and better than the "other" side. Anybody on the "other" side is alt-right/far right/extreme right, and therefore is automatically bad.

 

[Marco Fucko]

More extreme ideologues of any stripe are inherently detached from the daily political reality of the government they inhabit, because they want something completely different. So they get to sit there and act like they have all the answers all while not really doing anything productive. Julius Evola was an Italian reactionary of aristocratic birth who viewed Fascism as not really far right enough, desiring a return to monarchy and aristocracy. He also refused to work as an engineer because he didn't want to "lower" himself and just wrote and painted and walked around his city while it was being bombed.

Basically the minute someone looks at their society's entire system of governance and says "nah, I'd rather take administration cues from the perpetually unemployed" and they buy into that wholeheartedly, they're going to be an annoying faggot.

[muh_moobs]

Short answer: Too much flavor-aide

Long answer: Immaturity/evolutionary psychology.

It's about shaming people into falling in line. The "I'm better than you, so nyeh" line (similar to political insults ie. bigot vs. SJW) functions as a dog whistle. When engaged, we feel threatened, and the lizard brain seeks safety in numbers and to avoid violence. So, this sort of language allows a potential adversary to signal whether they're part of our tribe or not (they can either fall over and admit defeat, or dig in and hold their ground) and serves to attract other tribe members, giving the person who blew the whistle safety in numbers.

Ever watch witness a group of people (right or left) dogpile on someone expressing views different from theirs on Facebook or some other website? Just imagine a bunch of cave people clubbing an intruder. It's ultimately all rooted in tribal evolution.
