Two things define a leftist...

1. A leftist believes that government is the solver of economic and social problems ... and that it does so by confiscating and redistributing wealth ... which leftists assume is an existential substance ... not something which has to be created.

2. A leftist is someone who deludes herself ... and attempts to distract and bemuse others ... by obsessing over minutiae which are completely irrelevant to the topic being discussed ... and is always successful with the former ... and never successful with the latter.
