leftwing gnosticism is the manifestation of the cognitive dissonance of the people who have been educated (read: brainwashed) into the polite inclusive liberal mindsets when realizing the depths of the depravity of the condition we find ourselves in the modern world, not because of our own willing or doing. then they fall into a sort of metaphysical gnostic nihilist depression, where it is reality itself, because of "enthropy" or something, that is inherently evil. many such cases. resulting in antinatalism, abortion/euthanasia glorification and other such anti-life positions, conveniently brought to you and argued in some oxford university press book by some elite educated "academic" in some fancy philosophy department, who just happens to have ties to some of the world's most influential foundations and institutions. No longer being "capitalism" to blame, because capitalism cannot be blamed for the depths of human depravity nor the degree of one's own individual suffering, and being to well educated (read: brainwashed) to accept the truth of the depths of the conspiracy against the human life-form being enacted in a violent way for several centuries now, since nobody wants to be on the side of the tin-foil hats that are crazy enough to think that the goverments would commit such acts of deliberate evil against individuals, like dumping chemicals from planes, manipulating science and injecting entire populations with god knows what. no, that would be too stupid to entretain for the well-educated person. we have been socialized by THEIR institutions, after all, and no good dog bites the hand that feeds its physical and digital algorithm. so it is easier for the good dog to believe reality is just INHERENTLY BAD and we live in a prison planet, aparently, and so the leftoid gnostic melancholic would rather kill him/her/theymself that entretain that it might just be THEM and not BEING AS SUCH, no, that's just so outlandish, thus the gnostic leftoid will just opt out by dying and give THEM exactly what THEY want, one less whiny, potentially subversive mouth to feed. do not give them the satisfaction of accepting the propaganda that your life is worthless.
