I think they're mostly just sheltered young adults that don't know any better. Coddled by their parents, living in their parents house etc. Then they go to school and are brainwashed by commie BS. That's why you see so many people blaming the grid failures due to capitalism, deregulation and other shit like that. Meanwhile zero focus on personal responsibility to be prepared for a natural disaster.

The modern government run school system has created individuals that are weak mentality and lack the grit required to really be successful.

I'm convinced that the actual smart liberals simply use the democratic party for political favors and to get beneficial regulations for their industry to snuff out competition. That's why big tech, big media and so on are so heavily slanted towards democrats.
