Sometimes I think leftists are just fearful people who think a powerful government will make all the things they are afraid of stop. (But some are just power mad fascists.)

There’s a little more to it. There are studies showing that qualities such as attractiveness, physical strength, and testosterone levels are associated with more conservative politics.

This, I think, gets at the root of the problem, which is that Leftism is a politics of resentment.
