Leftism's psychological roots are low self-esteem, feelings of
inferiority, feelings of powerlessness, defeatism, depressive
tendencies, guilt and self-hatred. Some or all of these feelings act as
the guiding force behind Leftists' political beliefs.
Leftists usually identify with groups that have an image of being weak
(women), defeated (natives) or repellent (homosexuals). Leftists would
never admit to themselves that they have these feelings, but it's
precisely because Leftists see these groups as inferior that they
identify with them. For example, feminists are desperate to prove that
women are as strong and capable as men are -- this is because feminists
are nagged by fears that women may not be as strong and capable as men
are.
Leftists despise anything that has an image of being powerful and
successful: Western civilisation, America, white heterosexual males.
The reasons Leftists give for hating America and the West do not
correspond to their motives. Leftists profess to hate America because
it is warlike, imperialistic, racist and so on. But where these same
flaws appear in socialist or primitive cultures, Leftists find excuses
for them or at best GRUDGINGLY admit that they exist. Yet they
ENTHUSIASTICALLY point out (and often greatly exaggerate) these faults
where they appear in Western civilisation. The real reason Leftists
hate America and the West is because they are strong and successful.
Also notice the masochistic tendency of Leftist tactics. They protest
by lying down in front of vehicles and intentionally provoke police and
racists to abuse them. These tactics are not used as a means to an end
but because Leftists prefer masochistic tactics.
Art forms that appeal to Leftist intellectuals tend to focus on
sordidness, defeat and despair. Otherwise they take an orgiastic tone,
throwing off rational control as if there were no hope of accomplishing
anything through rational calculation and all that was left was to
immerse oneself in the sensations of the moment.
Leftists are anti-individualistic and pro-collectivist. They want the
state to solve everyone's problems and to satisfy everyone's needs for
them. Leftists do not have an inner sense of confidence that they can
take care of their own needs. They can only feel strong when part of a
large organisation or mass movement with which they identify
themselves.
The Leftist is hostile to competition because deep inside he or she
feels like a loser.
