The Liberal Mental Health Crisis

Christian conservatives build their lives on truth, not feelings;

American Politics, News | Comments | January 22, 2026

We see on TV or in news photos ongoing protests by Democrats. These protests feature women who have shaved their heads as a form of protest, men dressed in women’s clothing, and protesters who swear at or spit on ICE and border agents. Many individuals shout obscenities or wear t-shirts with offensive language. Some protesters physically block ICE or Border Patrol vehicles, preventing federal agents from doing their operations and people from going to and coming from work. Some even throw urine at the officers.

There is no doubt, the Far Left is suffering a mental health crisis

The protesters are opposing the efforts of ICE and the Border Patrol to remove hardened criminals from our streets. Go figure! They are defending illegal migrants who have committed serious offenses, including murder and rape. These individuals have caused devastation to American families who have lost children or parents due to various other offenses, such as DUI or the actions of unqualified truck drivers.

Yes, they are removing illegal aliens who are not violent criminals, but this group constitutes only about 15% of those who are deported. Removing them is required by our laws. As a reminder, we have offered illegal aliens up to $3,000 to self-deport.

There is no doubt, the Far Left is suffering a mental health crisis. The data shows it plainly. A Pew Research survey shows well over 50% of young white liberal women have been diagnosed with a mental condition.

A Columbia University study found "depression among liberal teenagers escalated after 2012, while conservative teens remained far more stable."

Social Science & Medicine–Mental Health found that "liberals, especially young ones, consistently experience more emotional distress than conservatives."

Data collected from the 2022 Cooperative Election Study from Tufts University reveals that of voters who said their mental health was poor, 45% identified as politically liberal, with just 19% conservatives.

Liberals are more than twice as likely to say they have poor mental health. Conservatives are more than twice as likely to say their mental health is excellent. NY Post

People with a mental health condition are not difficult to spot

Liberals were taught or propagandized early in their education that their success or failure depended upon government, corporations, or the 'system.' This produces victimhood along with the never-ending external excuses for failure. Democrats have created and nurtured millions of very unhappy people that are now lashing out.

Conservatives believe that success depends upon personal responsibility, self-reliance, and one's own ability to achieve a level of happiness in spite of ever-present obstacles. For most, it's marriage, children, and family that give life meaning and purpose.

The foundation of this worldview for most conservatives is the belief in God, a higher power who is in control and grants favor to those who love Him. If that doesn't inspire someone to rise each morning, it's difficult to imagine what would.

It is no wonder so many liberals are angry and frustrated. This most depressed generation on record has been bombarded with propaganda that God & family are myths and should be dismissed in favor of career or self-fulfillment and dependency on government.

People with a mental health condition are not difficult to spot. They exhibit excessive anxiety or anger, overwhelming sadness, impulsive or reckless behavior, difficulty coping with everyday life (like going to work), and paranoia or losing touch with reality, like dealing with the political climate or their gender identity. The trans movement is just another attempt at being God.

The worst part of this crisis is that the political party that made these zombies doesn't care about them. They only want their vote, and their mental health or happiness is of no concern.

The political climate is especially significant. Ten years ago, Obama was busy deporting illegal aliens to the tune of 5 million deportations. No protests. ICE agents didn't experience any harassment or demonstrations.

The Democrat Party is very adept at manipulating their voters, and they know how to keep them agitated

What happened? Obama was president. It was not in the political interest of the Democrat Party to protest. So, they didn't release the hounds.

The Democrat Party is very adept at manipulating their voters, and they know how to keep them agitated. They aim to get them more flustered than they already are.

The Dems are utilizing a calculated approach to inciting violence, strategically manipulating public sentiment and provoking law enforcement responses. They are hoping to create a sequence of events that would justify a broader conflict, thereby creating an overwhelmingly negative public opinion of President Trump.

You can see the protesters are being provocative. Many of them are hoping the police and ICE do something stupid to provide them an excuse to go to civil war. I believe that is what the Democrats want. After all, it's what the Dems are paying for. Yes, many demonstrators are being paid. They are most probably told the Dems will pay their fines or bail.

All the chaos is supported by sanctuary cities and Democrats that demonize police. The Dems are directing the entire operation. They are controlling what you see and hear. We are being played. We're still waiting for legal acknowledgment of this reality.

In the meantime, millions of liberals, especially the young, are finding themselves lost in the wilderness of a mental haze with lives that are unfulfilled and without meaning. The Democrats took it away. To liberals life is just a Ferris wheel, always ending up in the same place.

We all have the ability to improve our circumstances to live a full life. But only you can do it for yourself. Christian conservatives build their lives on truth, not feelings.
