This varies with culture, average IQ, and a few other factors.

What works in NY will not work in TX, Uganda, or Nicaragua.

liberalism thinks we can best figure out the best way to organize society, together. hardcore leftism and "your way" both assume to know the answers, and are fine with limiting the input of others in the conversation. the popularity of both concepts depends on believing one will be part of the "deciders" or your views will be represented either way. it's just as unrealistic as thinking everybody will work hard under true communism or ancapistan won't become Mad Max.

Leftism limits the participation of non-Leftists in the conversation.

At this point, that is a consistent historical result.

I also distrust mob decision making. Finding the "best way to organize society, together" is inferior to looking at what has worked in history.

Also, I do not need to be among the deciders; the order I propose will work better for civilization, and I will inherit those benefits.

This is why the Western system rules the world: it aims toward civilization.

Leftism (unintentionally) aims toward regression to primitive, disorganized conditions.
