    It’s very clear that you’ve never actually bothered to learn what leftists actually believe.

      Well, it’s not like I haven’t tried, but the problem is that if you ask two leftists what they believe, you tend to get three different opinions, and they’re all based on theory.

      Also, few of them can hold an argument, as soon as you present a criticism, they feel personally attacked and tend to become hostile.

        Eh, there’s plenty of socialism in practice. But English speaking discourse is dominated by fans of dictators that actively hunted socialists in twentieth century.
