Scholarly progressives know centrally controlled economies historically fail, but they reason "this time the right guys will control it, and the results will be different."
But their "guys " have the same emotional flaws that convince them delusions are true, the bad effects their policies cause is because their policy was not implemented correctly.
Like Mao, Stalin, Castro etc. Xi will blame someone else for the failure of communism, central control. The ghost cities, trains to no where, all the examples of incompetence, is someone else's fault.
Eventually the people themselves are blamed, the victims of the abuse are why they suffer. Then millions are put to death to 'fix' them.
Chairman Mao (Xi's hero) was especially efficient doing this. First he incited the people to identify the corrupt party leaders who caused the failure. After executing "the corrupt party leaders, all the "uppity peasants" who identified them, were also executed.
No one was left to oppose Mao. It was demonic genius.
But scholarly progressives know in their heart of hearts, "this time utopia will be achieved. We are the ones we have been waiting for. Anyone who gets in our way we will destroy." And so the revolution brings in "the new boss, who fails just like the old boss".
Christians, Jews, Capitalists, Libertarians, anyone loving liberty instead of the state, all the counter-revolutionaries must die! They are evil, bigots, racists, trying to stop our morally right utopia where everyone is equal!"
History proves the delusion of Utopia, which first manifested itself in the Tower of Babel (Babylon), became a seed planted world wide. The Great Harlot Mother of Harlots, poisoning the waters making the entire earth drunk with her delusions.
The promise of equality, is a strong intoxicant. Its right we all be equal and everyone who disagrees is evil and worthy of death. They are Hitler etc., evil incarnate.
Men ruling from the clouds are never above their own defects, are never holy God. Man has dominated man to his own injury, every time he does it.
Any Christian rooting for the progressive left, is delusional. They ignore history, current events, the hate the left manifests towards them.
