Lets make it good then. Lets explore WHY leftist hate everything good, what it means and how we can best counter them.
To do so I'll start with in the middle. Slave morality. If you've read Nietzche's Towards a Genealogy of Morals you know this concept, but you've probably heard of it any, it's a pretty famous idea.
For those who have not read the book the idea is simple. Those who are at the extreme top of society, the nobles, think differently than those at the extreme bottom, the slave, he set out to explore this difference and how it came about.
His conclusion was that the noble's morality was based on the idea of good vs bad. The noble, of course, was good. So naturally things like him and the things he enjoyed were also good. Having money is good, a loving family is good, owning slaves is good. Things he did not like were bad. Being poor is bad, getting a broken leg is bad, a wolf eating your chickens is bad. The wolf is not evil. He's a wolf, he eats small animals, but him eating your animals is bad for you. The noble lives a life of self-actualization. He can become an artist, a musician, a builder. He also thrives on being great at what he does. If you have all the time in the world to learn to be a musician you damn well better become great at it. He also thrives on competition and sport, of course losing is bad, but there is no animosity if he loses, he shakes the hand of the winner and looks forward to the next game.
The slave, on the other hand, spends his entire life simply doing as he is told. His life is defined by the fact that he's a slave. He, of course, is good, but has nothing in common with the noble. The slave thinks in terms of good and evil. Slavery is evil. The slave owner is evil. As a result he defines his morality reactively where the noble defined his proactively. If making slaves do all of your work is evil, then working hard is good. If beating slaves is bad, then being a pacifist is good. The slave takes no pride in his work. He does not care if it's done well or quickly, he only cares that he looks busy so the master does not punish him. So long as his evil master exists he has no possibility of any self-actualization so the slave hates the master and would do anything to destroy him.
The question is how does this system work for those who are free, but not noble. It may seem paradoxical, but these moral systems are not mutually exclusive. Certainly the noble can view a Mongol horde that's raping and murdering everyone as evil and head off to destroy them. The slave does not see blisters as evil just bad. So a blacksmith may think of his profession as noble, but still see the local gang running a protection racket to be evil. He sees not having a trade skill as bad, but certainly not evil. Like so many other things these two moral system coexist on a spectrum.
I'm sure you've already figured out how this applies to modern politics. I find it more meaningful to replace morality with identity. The right identifies themselves by what they are. The left by what they are not. Identifying as gay is really identifying as not straight. Identifying as black is really identifying as not white. Blacks are always talking about how evil whites are and whites simply think of blacks as bad.
As with our blacksmith, people in modern society have the opportunity to swing in either direction. The more they self-actualize the more they swing right. The less they have going on in their lives the more likely they are to resort to this kind of negative identity. Dr Ben Carson, for example, does not need to identify as being not white because he can identify as a successful surgeon and politician. This explains why we see a shift towards conservatism in people who are older and people with families. It also reveals the toxicity of our schools, by failing to give children any valuable skills so they can self-actualize they are pushed towards leftism.
