Perversity is an unmentioned but primary component of human nature. It’s the major impetus of the Left, who hide behind a facade of altruism to mask their envy, resentment & malevolence; however, Charlie Kirk’s assassination put the Left’s schadenfreude on full display for all to see. The tens of thousands of people who reveled in his death publicly are dwarfed by the millions who secretly rejoiced. Perversity is part & parcel of socialism. Those who support it see government as their opportunity to spite the people who they consider as oppressors, mostly because throughout life, budding socialists were always the ones who came in the bottom half of a competition.
Because socialism benefits the lower half of the population at the expense of the upper half, most advocates for stronger government, because it redistributes wealth, are socialists. Add to that, by and far, because people who work for government are making more money than their private sector counterparts with great healthcare & retirement, it makes them feel superior. It isn’t altruism they’re feeling towards the people they ostensibly are helping, it’s contempt. This comprehension of what the motivations of government workers actually are is obfuscated because if the truth were known, socialism would be illegal due to its treasonous underpinnings, and the people who support it exiled to Canada.
