Everyone who has studied politics knows damn well what The Left means, (except for the part where they pretend that National Socialism isnt on the left). It is a coalition of victim groups and their alleged protectors, who seek greater government control to redress the alleged historical harm done to those groups and punish the oppressors thereof.

Its actually worse than that. The Gramscian infection consumes worthy causes, chews them up and remakes them in its own pro-totalitarian image...
For a worthy cause in the end stage of Gramscian consumption, consider the U.S. antiwar movement. It is right that we should have a vocal, principled domestic constituency against unnecessary military action. But we have no such thing.
Instead, we have a kind of sock puppet that becomes dead silent when a Communist-indoctrinated President is in the White House, raising not so much a peep at drone-strikes a go-go or multiple failed interventions in places like Libya, or at boots on the ground right now in Iraq.
Wars are protested only when doing so serves the purposes of the Gramscian long march. This isnt even hidden well any more: scratch an anti-war demonstration and you find a Stalinist political group like International ANSWER at the bottom of it. And the mainstream media doesnt care about this infected themselves, they see no enemy to the left, ever.
This is very poignant example of how the Gramscian infection is so pervasive...
Humans lack immunity to the Gramscian virus because they all want more power than they really have, so they live vicariously via the victimization causes of the collective.
"Man's highest joy is in victory: to conquer one's enemies; to pursue them; to deprive them of their possessions; to make their beloved weep; to ride on their horses; and to embrace their wives and daughters."
Genghis Khan
This is caused by the same lust for power that causes the disease you have. This is why failed collectivists turn to a lust for blood at the their end game collapse.
But whereas, you collectivists only destroy yourselves, Genghis Khan actually united many of his tribes and achieved opening up trade between West and East, thus raising the standard-of-living for many humans (not just his own).
What Genghis did was necessary because of Coasian costs that needed to be overcome.
What apparently drove Genghis to start his crusade was watching all the infighting amongst their tribes and the poverty that resulted.
You have chosen, perhaps by default, to worship nature.
How can one worship reality? Worship implies faith. I don't need faith to tell me reality exists.
The reason you idealist nutcases always destroy your collective selves (over a long enough time horizon) is you lust for power that you don't have, i.e. you lust for the crab bucket mentality to drag other men down (how dare they have more than one wife when you only have one) and have control over the competition for females by restricting weak men (subconsciously it appears you may be actually wanting to raise your status in the society by removing the viability of others). Genghis has real empire building power. You (and I) don't. That probably pisses you off and you want to find an easy way to gain leverage. So you reach out for the collective victimization drug.
What you don't realize is that your philosophy is very Evil, which is the philosophy (morals) you claimed religion would make absolutely differentiated between good and evil.
I have formulated a theory as to perhaps why highly educated men fall to the left. And that is because they are not very masculine and didn't develop their athletics and their streetwise bad boy methodologies in order to compete for the woman's hypergamy. Thus they want to develop some power which is exclusive to their tribe of academic, effeminate "men". They probably also feel that bad body mannerisms are demeaning and beneath their social status. They want to elevate their the faction of society where their credentials and social skills are well developed, but employing the collective to eliminate the other social stratas. I think this theory is very plausible.
