why left is always right
by venkappa Bhat on Oct 16, 2007 08:41 PM

And ultimately Manmohan had to Oblige. The left knew where it%u2019s support base rests and what it needs to keep it up. It knew what will be impact on the leftists and socialists with a nuclear and technological embrace of capitalist USA. Manmohan has profound understanding of Politics and economics and democracy and is reflected in his agreement with left at last without any bitterness over the issue.
Why left is mostly (not always) right at least, unlike other political formations who mostly wrong ?. Why most profound intellectuals have all leftist or socialistic leanings and are from such backgrounds ? Why only left%u2019s views and ideologies prevail over others in ideological struggles ?
The broad reasons are:
%u2022Never, telling and not doing; and rather not telling even after doing but only understanding.
%u2022Clearer concept, deeper understanding and thoughtfulness on the core issues.
%u2022Experiencing the pulse (lowest and meanest may be, but bare minimum need) of humans (survival instinct) having nothing materially (may be body also enslaved).
%u2022Never being superficial nor allow artificiality to ignore the natural minimum need instincts.
%u2022Understanding that %u2018Man eats man instinct%u2019 is most prominent among the most rich and powerful than among the poor and needy.
%u2022Literature, success in any field needs a profound understanding of the basics and so most profound intellectuals have socialistic or leftist leanings.
%u2022Considering ideology above power and party in politics
