Progressive Left’s Misery—They’re Not Just Depressed They’re Separated

The Real Reason the Left Stays Broken

In a sharp and needed piece for The Blaze, Auguste Meyrat lays out why leftism seems to attract the perpetually sad and emotionally unstable—and why it keeps them that way. He nails several truths: the victimhood culture, the algorithmic misery machine of social media, and the self-sabotaging rejection of personal responsibility.

But while Meyrat diagnoses the symptoms, he sidesteps the disease.

The root of the despair isn’t just ideological—it’s spiritual. Leftism (liberal progressivism) is not just a bad political philosophy. It is an anti-Biblical belief system that severs its followers from the only source of lasting peace and joy: Jesus, the living God. Leftism denies God as the Creator who is to be fearfully obeyed and absolutely loved—then proceeds to redefine morality, mutilate His design for gender and family, celebrate the slaughter of the unborn, and exalt the state as savior rather than servant.

That’s rebellion. And like all rebellion, it ends in depression, division, delusion—and death.

What the sad souls on the Left need isn’t a better policy. They need a Savior.

And they  can still turn around. They can reject the patterns of chaos and embrace the solid rock—the Gospel of Christ. They can stop virtue-signaling and start truth-seeking. They can lay down their weapons of war against God’s Word and be restored to the One who made them, and still loves them.

“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28)

There is no joy at the end of the progressive Left’s road. But there is joy unspeakable in Christ. The way out isn’t therapy or politics.

It’s repentance. And the door is still open.
