Why does the left have visceral appeal to so many? It appeals to the emotions and bypasses reason.People are more lie oriented than truth oriented so the left can appeal to human nature which more readily listens to that which is appealing to its lower instincts rather than its higher reason -atrophied if not totally non existent in the masses.
To the average Joe lies are far more appealing.It is the staple diet of the many.The leftist hones in on this lie oriented human condition and milks it for power. Emotions are the key and tool of all power lusters.Base instincts are nurtured and tapped into.Envy and covetousness are manipulated to stir up the people in a collective spasm of scape goating and victim persecution,usually against the most noble and industrious members of society who are labellled greedy and selfish for seeking to provide for themselves and their families through self help rather than recourse to welfare.
Ugly emotions of envy and hate have to be redefined as virtues in the leftist lexicon. Anyone who questions the ethical base or legitimacy of leftism has to be smeared and character assasinated,misrepresented and villified usually with such epithets as 'fascist', weird, demented.
Young minds are most susceptible to collectivist ideology and are always targetted by leftists in schools,universities,the media and all left dominated arenas.Unformed and suggestible young people are the perfect receptacles for the indoctrinators to work on,using brainwashing tactics such as the encouragement of sexual licence and a morals free philosophy and hedonism.The arts are also deployed to inculcate nihilism and moral relativism.Promotion of a drugs culture further degrades impressionable minds and such narcotic abuse is assiduosly encouraged and endorsed by the psychopolitical change agents of the left.Licence is presented as freedom and the young are prime candidates for such programming inculcation.
Beyond a certain age many will become more conservative in outlook having experienced the ravages wrought in their personal life by leftist thinking.Those who continue on the leftwards path beyond say 30,35 usually know what they are doing and seek power and control over others for personal/ financial gain.They are usually referred to as politicians...

I remember at the age of four being shocked and tearful that the government doesn't look after wild animals.
Since then, as with most people, the life experience and a growing understanding as to exactly what makes human beings tick has paralleled a drift to the right.
One mystery however, that I will never fathom is how can one sustain a belief in collectivism in later life, i.e. the love of man for his fellow man, the willingness of individuals to work and sacrifice for the good of society. It's not that these aren't excellent qualities, it's just that those that see them in others will inevitably get royally shafted.
Sad but true.
We must be careful not to conflate love for fellow man with collectivism.That's just the beastly beatitudes of Bolshies...
or even the beastly beatitudes of Balthazaar B, another fan of sharing the production of others.
or even the Ginger Man?
