Left wingers also have the most evident cognitive dissonance when it comes to being challenged in their political ideology. Most conservative leaning types I have interacted with have been more open than left leaning types. Conservatives are more patient and able to keep their cool in conservations when their beliefs are challenged. They will have a discussion with you about the details and both you and them will benefit from the interaction.

Most lefties do not engage in respectful dialogue. They argue, cut you off, interrupt, and resort to ad hominem attacks and name calling. That is because they lack the emotional and intellectual fortitude to engage in civil conversations aimed toward finding the truth of the matter and solutions. Political inclination is actually a highly predictable element in personality theory and people who are very high in traits of extraversion and low in conscientiousness happen to be politically left leaning. It offers a solid and empirically backed explanation as to why they respond so emotionally and without thought and awareness. It is engrained in their pathology and will not change no matter how “open-minded” they take pride in supposedly being.

Anyway, back on topic. Lefties tend to pick fields such as humanities that pay considerably less than STEM fields. They lack the awareness and responsibility to recognize this and select colleges and schools prudently, so instead they take bulschit liberal arts colleges and degrees with debt then expect you to pay for their mistake... because they “feel” that is the right thing to do.
