A big part of the problem I see is that many on the left have a very Utopian view of things. (I'm drawing much of this from Thomas Sowell's book, "A Conflict of Visions.") Utopian views (i.e., "Unconstrained Vision") seem quite visionary, however, they are not very practical when real-world implementation is tried. The other vision, according to Sowell, is the Constrained Vision, which sees that man has certain limitations that need to be accounted for and some restrictions applied accordingly.
Thomas Sowell's story and writings are excellent!

This is how Democrats use this "Utopian View" today: Since at least one person has died from Covid, it proves Trump is evil, and should be tried for murder.

The Democrats always compare the Republicans with utopian perfection, yet never their own candidates. They all get a free pass.

I agree that only Jesus Christ will be the perfect King to rule the earth!
