I want to begin with a statement from a Leftist woman that I find profoundly revealing. She once worked with a man she admired—someone she found brilliant in every way. But then she discovered a troubling fact: he was a Conservative. And just like that, she hated him.

Let that sink in for a moment. Ask yourself: Have you ever respected someone deeply, only to later discover their political views were different from yours? If so, did that revelation change how you saw them?
My immediate thought was simple: If this woman admired this man’s intellect and character, wouldn’t that realization at least make her question her own political assumptions? Shouldn’t his intelligence and achievements give her pause before resorting to hatred?
Cognitive Dissonance and the Threat of Contradiction
This reaction aligns with a well-documented psychological phenomenon called cognitive dissonance. Cognitive dissonance occurs when an individual holds two contradictory beliefs simultaneously, creating psychological discomfort (Festinger, 1957). In this case, the woman believed intelligent, admirable people could only be Leftists. But then she encountered undeniable proof that an intelligent, admirable man was a Conservative. Rather than reevaluating her political assumptions, she resolved the conflict by rejecting him outright.
This is not just a personal failure; it is symptomatic of a broader cultural issue.
Personal Experience: When Politics Divides Family
Speaking from experience, my own family has always held me in high regard. From a young age, they recognized my intellect and took pride in my accomplishments. For most of my life, our political differences never surfaced—primarily because, like many Black families, politics in my household was assumed to be Democrat by default. The few political discussions we had followed that script.
It wasn’t until my work on Fox News that my political stance became clear to them. One of my cousins, a pastor, once called me about Barack Obama. She told me she supported him and genuinely wanted to understand why I didn’t. She prefaced her question with an acknowledgment: she respected my intellect and perspective, so my opposition to Obama puzzled her.
I didn’t argue. Instead, I asked her to consider Obama’s record on partial-birth abortion. I told her to evaluate whether his stance aligned with her faith. We ended the call amicably, exchanging I love yous, and left it at that.
What stood out to me was her approach—she sought understanding, not condemnation. Unlike the woman who recoiled in hatred at her colleague’s Conservatism, my cousin had the intellectual curiosity to ask why.
The Fragility of Leftist Belief Systems
The woman’s visceral hatred exposes something deeper: the fragility of modern Leftist ideology. This man had not changed. He had always been a Conservative; she simply hadn’t known it. Yet, upon discovering this fact, her admiration turned to disdain.
This kind of reaction mirrors what we see in cult-like belief systems. In a cult, ideological purity is paramount, and questioning the doctrine is forbidden. Dissent is met with excommunication or worse. The psychological underpinnings of cult behavior—groupthink, suppression of dissent, and moral absolutism—are all evident in Leftist intolerance (Janis, 1972).
Imagine living with a worldview so brittle that merely learning someone holds different beliefs triggers immediate hatred. How do Leftists not recognize that they belong to a cult of rage?
The Programming of Leftist Hate
What else might trigger this woman’s hatred? Would she despise her colleague for believing the U.S. should stay out of Biden’s war in Ukraine? Would she be outraged if he opposed government overreach? The issue isn’t the specific belief—it’s the heresy of independent thought.
She didn’t take a moment to ask why he held his views. Instead, she defaulted to hate. This is the same manufactured emotional response we see in the Black community whenever a criminal is shot by police—instant outrage, no context needed. Similarly, Leftist women are conditioned to blame “toxic masculinity” for any inconvenience they encounter.
The Left has cultivated a culture of perpetual grievance. Black Leftists hate white people. Feminist Leftists (if such a thing still exists) hate men. The goal is division—divide and conquer.
The Consequences of Manufactured Hatred
Those who reject Leftist orthodoxy face immediate demonization. They are branded with ideological scarlet letters, ostracized, or even physically attacked. Consider the Leftist campaign against Elon Musk. Musk, a once-beloved innovator, became a target the moment he questioned Leftist narratives. The result? Vandalism of Tesla vehicles across the country—attacks carried out by people who likely have no idea what the owners of these cars actually believe. They’ve been programmed to destroy on sight.
This begs the question: What mentality drives someone to blindly attack an object—or a person—simply because they associate it with a different ideology?
Have you seen videos of Leftists physically assaulting people for wearing MAGA hats? The sheer, unhinged rage they exhibit is astonishing. It’s as if a switch is flipped, and they go into attack mode. When they see these videos later, they must experience a surreal moment of self-awareness, realizing they acted like rabid animals.
If these incidents were rare, they could be dismissed. But they are not. They happen with alarming frequency, and they follow the same script: programmed outrage, mindless destruction, zero self-reflection.
The Left’s Manchurian Candidates
I recently wrote about Leftist “Manchurian candidates”—individuals conditioned to respond to ideological triggers without thought. They lie dormant until the next outrage cycle activates them. The woman who turned on her Conservative colleague is just another example. She was never taught to think critically about her beliefs—only to enforce them.
We now live in an America where Conservatives, the nation’s most stable citizens, must remain vigilant. Leftist programming has produced an army of reactionary zealots, ready to destroy at the push of a button. Until they wake up, the rest of us must stand guard against their mindless rage.
