Conservatives know that a rising tide lifts all boats. Progressives observe an under inflated tire a let the air out of the other three to achieve unity.
I concur completely with your assessment confided to a former antagonista. My views stated herein, dissect the motivations of why the Libtards act the way we see. Perhaps “my ideas” might help we Conservatives understand ourselves by comparison:
A one time Liberal, now staunch Patriot, recently noted that "illogical actions are the playground of the communist." (T.L. Davis)
This is accurate and wise observation, IMHO.
When emotional thinkers get power over others, they rule, not by facts and logic, but by their emotions.
Ruling by facts and logic is "hard work" because you have to work to seek out information and then determine what among the competing snippets is factual. And it is even more "hard work" to discern what the REAL PROBLEM actually is that needs being addressed. Furthermore, it is "hard work" to decide what proposed actions will produce the most likely chance of success at the lowest cost to ALL. (Pssst: We all know human nature leans toward the easy way out, don't we ? This explains the lure that today's Liberalism has to thus draw in the like-minded.)
But when you rule by emotion, you only need to have the right motives, as judged by others of your ilk. Thus, any logical requirements for evaluating success just become hindrances to your feeling good about how your ideas are going to absolutely solve every nuance of the situation....
And as you said, Michael, throwing other peoples’ money at the problem is how DemonicRats measure success of their solutions to the problems they willfully avoid remembering that they also created….
Pretty simple. Every thing the Democrat Party stands for and advocates is ABNORMAL. Every. Thing.
The American People only ask that we be allowed to live a normal life without a government controlled by a political party that believes that men can be women, women can be men, public speech must be controlled, white people are evil, gun control will stop all gun violence, citizens don't pay enough taxes, government can control the weather by controlling public energy use back to 19th century levels, only laws the Democrats believe in should be followed, the health of the individual is the domain of the government, the border should be opened to allow anyone in the world to come in, anyone who comes into the country should be supported, AND any citizen who disagrees with any of the above should be punished into submission.
Shorter version: being on the losing side of nearly every 80-20 issue AND being a condescending wokescold while doing it is a bad look. Abortion isn't the main issue for normal people and outside of about six very red states, the left already has more or less everything it wants at the state level short of (very divisive) government funding of abortion.
A g-o-d is one who makes rules for others. Real simple. They want to be g-o-d-s. Many need rules so many need rulers, which is a study in religion [ what we believe ], more than previously, which is a study in politics [ what we say ], which both impact economics [ what we do ], which if you [ pretend to ] rule you must influence.
Let’s face the fact, that every person—no matter who— is going to feel innately different about a situation than I do at some point because that’s life and you adjust and compromise. The suggestions you offered re: the woman’s question were excellent, but will make no difference b/c the leader’s already know the truth and do not care to accept it. They do not make allowance’s for reality, but expect reality to cater to their wishes and desires. They feel they are a lot more savvy than the acceptable day-to-day physics of the world and can out wit most given was open to some truth about the party she reps., why would anyone want to be the face of a party that refuses to accept basic logic regarding some of their core issues. The party standards require any reasonable person to lie and go along with their false reality and repeat propaganda or else stand back and let one voice speak for you w/o questioning what they ‘re saying or why. At this point, this woman understands the why question is always to deceive and get over on their “enemies”—anyone who won’t submit.

I've had similar conversations, Michael -- in one ear and out the other, however. Hope your colleague listened to your excellent descriptions
