Leftist ideology is inherently self-destructive. The main problem is that it not only ruins the lives of many of its adherents, but it also harms all of us trying to champion sanity.
Leftists have touted and glorified sexual perversion, corruption of children, killing of babies, Satanism, jihad, and many other forms of pure wickedness. Yet, despite the denial of shame and sin, leftists are very miserable people. The majority of transgenders are depressed, leftists are more likely than conservatives to be depressed or have anxiety, and they are also therefore more likely to commit suicide. Loving the sin and lying to the sinner is actually a recipe not for happiness, but for anguish.
Journalist Andy Ngo shared a story that encapsulates both the evil and the self-destructive misery of leftist ideology, which brings disaster on its opponents and its acolytes alike.
“I’ve learned that a trans Portland Antifa extremist who was there and celebrated when I was beaten in 2019 by Antifa ended up k—lling himself,” Ngo said. “Ralph Stuart Baker, who used the aliases ‘Rani Baker’ and ‘Ranilda Baeddel,’ committed s—icide in October 2023. He was extremely active online as @destroyed4com4t and was an activist for Antifa occult-themed rituals. He claimed to be a woman.”

Even radical LGBTQ-touting The Trevor Project admits that, in 2024, “39% of LGBTQ+ young people seriously considered attempting suicide in the past year — including 46% of transgender and nonbinary young people,” although it asserted that LGBTQ youth in “accepting” communities were less likely to commit suicide, which is questionable.
A CDC survey certainly didn’t seem to find that “affirmation” decreased depression, as it reported in 2023 that the overwhelming majority of LGBTQ youth reported hopelessness or sadness. That does not even address the depression of young people who took body-altering drugs and surgeries for gender dysphoria, only to regret it bitterly later. This LGBTQ insanity is driving a horrific mental health crisis, manufactured and misrepresented by leftists.
Again, the Pew Research Center found in 2021 that white liberals are more likely to have mental health issues:
Sixty-two percent of Whites who classify themselves as “very liberal” or “liberal” have been told by a doctor they have a mental health condition, as compared to 26% of conservatives and 20% of moderates, the study found.
Very liberal young white people were the most likely to struggle with mental health issues.
The reality is that leftist, Marxist ideology that Democrats push is founded upon and fueled by hatred, violence, destruction of the past, despair about the present, and gloom about the future. Whether it is climate alarmism, Trump derangement syndrome, hysteria over conservatives’ supposed anti-LGBTQ and racist views, or the growing fascination among leftists for Satanism, everything coming from the left is negative. The left tells its followers that most of the world is out to get them, that everything which makes them slightly uncomfortable is deliberate violence, that a climate apocalypse is always drawing closer, and that even their very bodies are fighting against their true selves and their happiness.
Is it any wonder, then, that radical leftists like Ralph Baker are among the most miserable people on planet Earth?
