They like the fact that you are listening. But when you offer a solution, or have an idea about what can be done about something, they get all mad and nasty.
You are supposed to say, "That sucks!" and leave it at that. They feel like they have been heard.
But what kills most men (and conservatives) is the fact that NOTHING gets done about the problem they were complaining about.

Exactly right. They don't want solutions. They need the problem.

TigerBlue, they are the problem! And I'd say talking to the left is like talking to a smirking authority hating 14 year old who is making faces at you. They won't understand until yank their arm behind their back and wrench that smirk off their face. You can't teach anyone who won't listen, doesn't respect authority, and only wants to provoke you until you make them listen, assert your authority, and make them want to comply.
After all they got that way having never been told they were wrong, never having been disciplined, and after never suffering consequences for their asinine behavior.

Makes sense. Both are creatures that allow emotions to control their thought process.

None of their leaders are truly interested in solving any problems, without them they have no platform from which to offer up false promises. None of their base are truly interested in solving problems they are faced with as to do so would be removing that 3rd leg of support called victim-hood. So, yes, they are the problem.

Lefties see a world of what could be. It’s optimism at its best.

You've made your bed, don't try to get up out of it as if it isn't yours. I hope your retention level is high or else you'll forget this bit soon enough. Where did you read it from, the bad link you posted earlier?
A pragmatic leftie would be called a moderate or maybe a blue dog, you have shown yourself to be neither. Now, it is possible you could change your outlook, it happened to at least one of my very old and very dear friends who was an Obama worshipper. After two terms of fecklessness and then seeing that Killary might become our POTUS he shifted sides so there is hope for you.

IMO, that's on purpose. If the problem goes away they can't complain about that problem anymore.

And to finish that thought, this is precisely why Republican Senate members and House members need to pursue legal action (the wrenching of the arm) and compliance (following the rule of law) against the radical left they serve with. It's the only way to get them to acknowledge and follow the rules of law they swore to uphold.
Where my patience is thin with the Republican party is in their failure to force compliance and discipline those who are seeking to turn our legislative branch into a kangaroo farce fit for nothing but the View.
