"The left"? Try the entire political, religious, education, business, banking, cultural, and familial establishment is corrupted, broken, morally, and ethically bankrupt. Well, basically, the entire society. (((They))) made sure their agents have gradually and successfully conditioned us to perceive everything through use of dialectic narrative and attack anyone who uses rhetoric. Everyone across the entire civilization who votes, does so by voting either for what they perceive to be the lesser evil candidate or the one who will absolves them of accountability for their crimes, rewards them with other peoples money, and grants them license to do whatever they want. Everyone is so deluded that they lack the cognitive awareness to grasp just how deeply they've all compromised both their souls and civilization by actively and passively supporting monstrously malevolent acts. Worse yet, the most obvious peaceable solutions available to all of us on the ground level of the societal hierarchy are immediately rejected by half of the population simply because the truth that 'if nothing is ventured, nothing is gained' is abhorrent to them. At this point, I'm resolved to accept that unless something dramatic happens at the ground level there will be blood, it's just a matter of when.
