The original leftist.

And as with all leftists, the words "atrocious" and "inhumane" aptly describe the effect of their vaporous and fanciful ideas on the lives of actual human beings.

The world has come to a bankrupt, dead end in political economy. The ideas which have prevailed for the last hundred years, can find their origin in the idealistic thinking of Plato, who wrote the most atrocious, inhumane book on political economy back in the 4th century B.C.: “The Republic”. He was the original Leftist. Leftists since his time have learned nothing and continue to present themselves as “idealists”. By “idealists” they mean that they propose a world which would suit them, albeit it means plain slavery for their victims. They are the habitual “improvers”, who want to improve things - using other people’s money, of course.

These people have captivated the world’s imagination, in spite of the dreadful results of their ideas in actual practice.^[1]
