At this point I think I do understand part of the leftist madness. I had a lot of time to study them, and it seems obvious that their world view is distorted by the mere fact that they never trully hear the opposing views.

But they do whatever they can to keep it that way. When I was asked about enviromental BS, they did an amazing work of creating questions in such a way there will be no chance of them hearing anything new.

They need to hear what they already 'know' so they won't have to question it...
