The modern left is mostly psychopaths with inferiority complexes, and do not act as classical leftists.
Aristocracy that life in security of their position and comfort become decadent--while those from the militant classes do not.
Low level jobs are mostly a system of being somewhere and doing what you are told in the way you are told to do them.
Society and jobs based on workers having no autonomy.
The system uses propaganda to make people want the solutions that have been decided for them.
Technology is initially optional until everyone is eventually forced to use it.
People are driven harder towards reward than they are to avoid being punished.
Defeating a strong man while he is ill—but allowing him to live and recover—is courting him to simply come back and take over again when he recovers.
Putting circuits in ones head for behavior enforement is impractical (circa 200X) but incremental advancements will be used to make it or an equivalent possible.
The left is a movement which seeks power.
Anarchists also seek power—but so they can control the circumstances of their own lives.
Groups which are more aggressive about seeking power tend to out-compete more peaceful movements.
