So, the Left always claims to be the ones who love their fellow Man person. Well, if that is so, why does this sort of thing keep happening?

Pro-abortion woman violently attacks pro-life reporter during recorded street interview

You have to look long and hard to find pro-life people attacking proaborts.

You judge a thing by the fruit it bears. Violence and hatred show just how rotten a tree Leftism has sprung from.

In a related story we learn just how unempathic the Left truly is.

New Research in The Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin argues conservatives are far more empathetic towards liberals who are suffering than are liberals of conservatives. The study observed 4737 participants and determined that liberals are just haters who gotta hate, hate, hate (sorry for going all Taylor Swift on you.)

I am mindful of an old poem we learned back in grammar school:

"He drew a circle that shut me out
heretic, rebel, a thing to flout"

That certainly describes the modern left. It's their way or the highway to helll tgere is no sympathy for anyone outside of their circle.

Rush Limbaugh used to say liberalism was the most gutless choice you could make; you let others tell you what you are to think while your job is merely to react and emote. Take a position that is unapproved and you will be flouted as a heretic and rebel. Your so-called "friends" will drop you like a hot potato. Of course it's even worse if you were always outside of the circle.

During the Pandmeic I got into a shouting match at the eye doctor because I was holding my disabled wife's arm to steady her. Some woman walked out of an elevator and immediately began shrieking at me about not obeying social distancing. I eventually called her a see you next tuesday, which didn't sit very well with the womenfolk around there, but she had it coming. I thought I was going to wind up in a fist fight with her; security had to come and break it up. I had a similar experience with a black dude during the Mike Brown riots in Ferguson, and at the hospital. I feared he was going to hit me in the back of the head as I walked away. My blood pressure was sky-high and the doctor wanted to check me into St. Mary's. In both cases these jackasses went out of their way to pick fights with me; I was just minding my own business in both cases. And in fact the second case (with the dude) led him to mock me for driving a junker car and being less well dressed than he (he had a nice new SUV and was wearing some expensive clothes). At one point I could see he realized his mistake; he was angry about how white America had kept his people down and here he was taking it out on someone who clearly wasn't doing as well as he! How do you play the victim and mock his car as a junker?

But self-awareness isn't a big thing with most liberals, nor is empathy. To the Left empathy is a proper social system, not a personal ethic. Much like Bill Clinton was the "most moral man in Ameria" to James Carville because he held the proper liberal positions and not because of how he behaved, the liberal always has the core beliefs - socialism, reverse racism, unrestrained sexuality, etc. - dictate who gets sympathy and why. To Carville Juanita Broderick should have just sucked up being raped by President Penis; he was "doing so much good" that she should have been honored to "put some ice on that" after Clinton got through. She didn't deserve sympathy because she was accusing Clinton; she should have accused New Gingrich, say, and then the leftists would have found all sorts of sympathy for her.

Liberalism is evil.
