Because leftism coddles weakness

if you're weak and pathetic you rarely have the willpower to want to succeed in life, you view it as "fair" that others should give things to you and that those better off than you should suffer. it's a form of jealousy. most people grow out of this phase during primary school, but sadly not everyone.

Exactly they want them weak because it makes it easier to control them.

>Why is leftism so appealing to those who are physically weak and lack self confidence?

what? I never noticed leftism being popular on this board

The strong and intelligent don't need the law to live civilly.

Society as we have is only for the protection/control of the weak.

Good one. Now would you like to answer my question?

their parents are weak, their teachers are weak, their leaders are weak
Plus being weak is considered a great thing by the american people.

it's not appealing enough to that group considering everyone here is right-wing

dunno about men but i have never seen hot right winger women

Because leftist ideology allows weak males to rise up the dominance hierarchy. Weak beta males can't compete in the normal hierarchy, so they adopt a new culture that WILL allow them to compete. You can be a limp-wristed, 100lb skeleton and still demonstrate "value" by virtue signaling.

This is why leftist males play victim-hood games -- it's just another form of competition wherein males can demonstrate their value in a heirarchy.

Jordan Peterson deconstructs this pretty well on his second Joe Rogan podcast.

That has literally nothing to do with what I asked.

How do they lack confidence if they are present at pretty much all social events or demonstrations, which tends to get Sup Forums's panties in a twist 10/10 times.

And to the physical weakness argument the response is pretty much this: what is valued nowadays is intelligence. Physical strength is required for jobs that require no special qualifications or education.
In short: brain is more important than muscle

It also happens that most lefties are quite well-off and from good homes. With intelligence comes empathy, and with good financial standing comes capacity for charity.

It's no coincidence that on average right-wing voters are less intelligent and earn less.

I tend to think that physical weakness and leftism are directly related. I was a lefty during my early adult life and I was a skinny punk ass kid. When I turned 23, I started doing BJJ and Krav Maga, and then a shortly after started lifting. We used to host gun defense seminars for law enforcement and I got to be friends with some cops. I slowly became more and more redpilled as I became stronger and more confident.

Discovering Sup Forums probably had something to do with it too

>le alpha beta meme
It doesn't even apply to wolves in the wild. This post is bad science.

Victim ideology.

t. beta

Because liberalism/progressivism by definition wants to change the traditional/conservative values of society, which would traditionally view them as weak and worthless, so that their failures to live up to society's standards can be excused.

Basically most leftists are bullied nerds and they hate the cool kids who typically fill conservative archetypes of social success. So they want to change the social system to make themselves the new cool kids and the jocks seen as sexist/racist/homophobic/oppressive/stupid/backwards/antiquated, etc.

this.
and now, as a strong "alpha" male you spend your days posting frog memes on a forum for spergs and virgins

checks out

>yawn

The comrades I've lost, won't stop hurting, its like they're all still there. You feel it too, don't you? I'm going to make them give back our past

When someone interprets as derogatory almost anything that is said about him (or about groups with whom he identifies) we conclude that he has inferiority feelings or low self-esteem. This tendency is pronounced among minority rights activists, whether or not they belong to the minority groups whose rights they defend. They are hypersensitive about the words used to designate minorities and about anything that is said concerning minorities. The terms “negro,” “oriental,” “handicapped” or “chick” for an African, an Asian, a disabled person or a woman originally had no derogatory connotation. “Broad” and “chick” were merely the feminine equivalents of “guy,” “dude” or “fellow.” The negative connotations have been attached to these terms by the activists themselves. Some animal rights activists have gone so far as to reject the word “pet” and insist on its replacement by “animal companion.” Leftish anthropologists go to great lengths to avoid saying anything about primitive peoples that could conceivably be interpreted as negative. They want to replace the world “primitive” by “nonliterate.” They seem almost paranoid about anything that might suggest that any primitive culture is inferior to our own. (We do not mean to imply that primitive cultures ARE inferior to ours. We merely point out the hypersensitivity of leftish anthropologists.)

(((they))) are pushing this shit into your children and making them like this. (((they))) control the press, (((they))) control the schools. heal them not kill them

Because its not your fault if you are a failure everyone is equal

As a teenager I suffered from depression, a crippling lack of self esteem and undiagnosed autism. As I got older and dealt with these problems, I became more and more right wing.

I seriously doubt it's a coincidence I abandoned leftism as I became a better person.

it's intuitive to them. any "conservative" or "traditional" ideology takes work everyday. leftist ideologies are just "there" and used when politically convenient.

I can do martial arts and like memes at the same time if I want to, faggot.

>How do they lack confidence if they are present at pretty much all social events or demonstrations, which tends to get Sup Forums's panties in a twist 10/10 times.
They can only win in groups. They'd always lose in a fair fight. They know that. They're a lot like nyggrs

>why does herd mentality protect the weak?

13. Many leftists have an intense identification with the problems of groups that have an image of being weak (women), defeated (American Indians), repellent (homosexuals) or otherwise inferior. The leftists themselves feel that these groups are inferior. They would never admit to themselves that they have such feelings, but it is precisely because they do see these groups as inferior that they identify with their problems. (We do not mean to suggest that women, Indians, etc. ARE inferior; we are only making a point about leftist psychology.)

14. Feminists are desperately anxious to prove that women are as strong and as capable as men. Clearly they are nagged by a fear that women may NOT be as strong and as capable as men.

15. Leftists tend to hate anything that has an image of being strong, good and successful. They hate America, they hate Western civilization, they hate white males, they hate rationality. The reasons that leftists give for hating the West, etc. clearly do not correspond with their real motives. They SAY they hate the West because it is warlike, imperialistic, sexist, ethnocentric and so forth, but where these same faults appear in socialist countries or in primitive cultures, the leftist finds excuses for them, or at best he GRUDGINGLY admits that they exist; whereas he ENTHUSIASTICALLY points out (and often greatly exaggerates) these faults where they appear in Western civilization. Thus it is clear that these faults are not the leftist’s real motive for hating America and the West. He hates America and the West because they are strong and successful.

im both of those things, but i also have always noticed how much they virtue signal and it annoyed me even when i was young and didnt know what virtue signalling was.

Ur right but brain and muscle aren't mutually exclusive. The reason people say go to the gym is less about the physical strength anyway, but more about the strength of character it provides like self-discipline and improved confidence.

Same as for why alt-right is so appealing to the same kind of people, they can finally belong to something after knowing a lifetime of rejection

The only thing Israelis are feeling is a cock up the ass.

Thanks for proving my point.

>How do they lack confidence
>In short: brain is more important than muscle

And yet, they are still quite visibly unconfident outside of their liberal echo chambers

The fact of the matter is that humans have STILL not evolved to sexually select intellect over physical fitness, and because of liberal betas' subconscious understanding of this natural fact, they have internalized insecurities that any amount of learning cannot dispel. Intellect is all well and good, but they need gainz and testosterone to complement the brains. Those imbue the mind with hormones that create natural confidence. Otherwise they will remain beta af

Read a little bit of the Unabomber's Manifesto, he talks about stuff like this. Basically he says its a way for the weak to have control since they lack the classic alpha male type prowess

Modern leftish philosophers tend to dismiss reason, science, objective reality and to insist that everything is culturally relative. It is true that one can ask serious questions about the foundations of scientific knowledge and about how, if at all, the concept of objective reality can be defined. But it is obvious that modern leftish philosophers are not simply cool-headed logicians systematically analyzing the foundations of knowledge. They are deeply involved emotionally in their attack on truth and reality. They attack these concepts because of their own psychological needs. For one thing, their attack is an outlet for hostility, and, to the extent that it is successful, it satisfies the drive for power. More importantly, the leftist hates science and rationality because they classify certain beliefs as true (i.e., successful, superior) and other beliefs as false (i.e., failed, inferior). The leftist’s feelings of inferiority run so deep that he cannot tolerate any classification of some things as successful or superior and other things as failed or inferior. This also underlies the rejection by many leftists of the concept of mental illness and of the utility of IQ tests. Leftists are antagonistic to genetic explanations of human abilities or behavior because such explanations tend to make some persons appear superior or inferior to others. Leftists prefer to give society the credit or blame for an individual’s ability or lack of it. Thus if a person is “inferior” it is not his fault, but society’s, because he has not been brought up properly.

no, people go to the gym if they want to get pussy and don't have the brains to show for it
well I guess nazis are kinda like niggers after all

Didn't the Nazis utterly kick Poland's ass?

and somehow 90% of the strong, right-wing pol are all virgins

really makes you ding

using big words doesn't make you sound smarter, this shit makes 0 sense and is full of contradictions in just 7 lines...

they did, but only because they came in groups, like a bunch of niggers. one on one we woulda showed them, eh?

Because it lets the government take care of them. They dont want to have to work hard when they can leech off the government.

Bitch please, I'm smart and I can probably bench press you if you went on a weight-watchers plan for few months.

so how is that most right-wingers love logic but believe in a god with zero proof?

I didn't know kikes are into fish mouthed women.

>i'm smart
>i'm stronger than you

things smart and strong people don't have to say: the post

Jordan Peterson presented a good hypotesis for this on the second joe rogan podcast he did:

Basically its that those men simply cannot compete in the traditional male power hierarchy, and instead sneak into feminized power hierachies as "allies" and in order to gain the societal benefits they wouldn't be able to gain normally as an emasculated male

Very easy (pic related)

you're shooting the messenger here

Just because most of us are beta virgin NEETs doesn't mean we can't see the truth about why leftists are characteristically beta

ding ding ding

Leftism appeal to those who don't trust themselves by giving power to big government to do things for them.

Simple as that.

This is exactly what happened to me. The more I get better the more the left repulses me... I just don't know man.

LOL what the hell is going on here? Feminists getting their asses kicked in eastern Europe it looks like.

Where can I get one of those things they're whacking them with? A whacking-stick-rope thingie.

The fact that you're willing to admit your flaws already puts you above the average leftist.

Phonefags on public transport like me find it difficult to read, but it is the best post I've read in a very long time.

You're just the typical nu-male who is over-invested in gaining social status from being the very-smart-boy, so your mind has to demonize people who gain status in other ways. It must be scary to imagine that other people can be physically masculine and just as smart as you.

and giving a lot of power to a
>muh strong leader
is pretty much what Sup Forums is all about

does that mean Sup Forums is a beta board?

Because it's the only way that they can compete in the sexual market-place. They hover around the females like creeps.

and you're projecting your own fears on other people on the internet.

I don't need to brag about how much I can bench, or what academic achievements I have, as opposed to some brit in this thread.

>AZ: 59% non-Hispanic white
>AK: 64% non-Hispanic white
>NV: 66% non-Hispanic white
>WV: 93% non-Hispanic white
You were 1 for 4. Good job, moron.

>is weak and lacks self-confidence
>sees beta leftists
>"At least I don't share their political ideals and IQ

Just to clarify, what are your academic achievements? What are your political beliefs? Can you lift your own body-weight? As In, do a pull up.

Deep down they want to be us.

>does that mean Sup Forums is a beta board?
>Sup Forums is one person
But yeah, authoritarism is pretty much that.

they have mostly been married off and converted. Most women are malleable, they follow whatever they are told.

You're the one accusing gym goers of being brainless

I'm weak and lack self confidence and I hate muslims. But to be fair I hate a lot of white people too because theyre so fucking daft. Ex. Manchester attack

hahaha so le (((epic))) (((meme))) le ((((funny))) XDDDD!!!!!(((!!!))))

>le white people meme
Yeah I hear Appalachia and the rural interior are doing great.

>What are your political beliefs?
well if you haven't found out by now, then I think my point is pretty much spot on

kek

yeah, I generalized of course.

You didn't answer a single one of my questions. Any reason in particular?

All that your posts have shown us is that you're insecure about your physical inferiority and aren't an authoritarian right-winger. If you have a dichotomous view of the political spectrum, you're probably one of the brainlets for which you've shown such disdain.

oh crap, we got a thick one, I'll leave the thinking up to you.
I think that's the most "lifting" you'll do in a week, bud.

Because it is easy to do nothing and be rewarded

Because collectivism over individualism.

I love how your lack of confidence, and probably physical inferiority-based insecurities have urged you, to pit me (singular) against all of you (plural).

Kinda proves who's insecure here.

Why do alt right autists project their insecurities onto leftists so much? I don't think I've seen more than a handful of people who are non-autistic and not ugly supporting Trump. It's literally all meme spouting redditors shouting BUILD WALL and calling people cucks.

This isn't r*ddit, you fucking eunuch. You're not going to get upboats for scapegoating whites people for everything.

Infantile name calling isn't the brilliant defense you think it is. Your academic achievements, your political beliefs, and can you lift your own body weight?

If you're not going to answer those three questions directly, Just be quiet and I'll assume you're some pusillanimous liberal deadbeat.

We're not wolves, we're people, and Leftist men are betas. Even the buff ones in Hollywood snivel like little bitches if just one SJW cunt gets on their case.

You came onto a public forum and challenged the beliefs of people who disagree with you. You pitted yourself (singular) against multiple people (plural). Don't fucking whine about now, you pussy.

It wasn't defense it was an attack.
If you were any bit as intelligent as you claim, you would notice, that namecalling was only a prelude to the insult.

That being said, assume whatever you wish about my personal achievements.

hey, it's you who needed to say "us", when you spoke for yourself.
Btw, a very *pussy* move

Exhibit A:

When the cognitive load reaches a sufficient threshold, we observe the familiar cortisol induced passive-aggressiveness frequently found in the male group with the lowest quartile testosterone levels. Unable to keep his cool, and yet simultaneously incapable of avoiding displays of erudition, the subject produces a steady stream of barely coherent snarky verbal outbursts. Cures exist, however at this the patient is unlikely to agree to treatment. We recommend, as a contingency plan, to administer weekly estrogen injections and begin transitioning.

>beta males want a strong authoritarian leader to speak for them
>me speaking for other males that you believe to be beta is a pussy move
Kek, you can't even follow your own logic. A pussy and a moron.

Oh I already have. If you were worth a shit as a human being, there's no reason why you wouldn't say so. Your refusal to answer my questions says everything.

Most people are physically weak as the percentage of employees that work physically demanding jobs declines.
