I hate to assume incompetence because then you look like the idiot for missing the joke. But in many cases what you have said is likely true.
I've come to a similar conclusion regarding leftist support of gun laws... They know that they themselves should not be trusted with weapons and apply that logic to everyone else.
If you're into philosophy you'll be able to connect the dots from Nietzsche and Hegel to postmodernism and deconstructionism and critical theory... you will be bombarded with this crap all throughout school and college and if you don't have your eyes open you'll have no idea why nothing makes sense and the people around you that drink the kool-aid are so out of touch with reality.
If you are not into philosophy hopefully you can hang on to religion or at least a set of values (mine are Love, Freedom, and Truth, and I'm thinking of how to fit in Consequence) - you need a rock or you will lose your way.
Also look up Yuri Bezmenov's interviews and lectures if you are interested in this.

It sucks. The information IS out, every time I hear about a new 'bombshell' regarding obamagate or Dem / swamp corruption, it turns out to be stuff that has been openly talked about and often sourced on the donald and other conservative circles, or possibly 4chan.
The average person who hates talking politics actively helps the MSM gaslight them by ignoring unpleasant truths.
We need to get the truth into mainstream channels, but I don't know how.
Long read but a good deep dive into the founding and funding of the communist front called Black Lives Matter
Love the patriotism. Hate the amazon. If you can't afford to buy from the manufacturer (in this case, shop.donaldjtrump.com ) save your money until you can! Don't support anti American POS businesses
We as a country can't afford to keep buying anything made in China and supporting globalist businesses like Netflix, Amazon, Facebook, Google, Harbor Freight, major league sports, mainstream media. Cut them off
Socialism / communism is by design unjust and tyrannical, there is no "real" socialism past the level of a family.
I understand the siren song of the ideal you are striving for, and I'll be the first to read a sci-fi novel with a logistic computer that can implement a "real" communist utopia with maximized utility for everyone.
But human nature won't allow it to work. I hate to be uncompromising, but unfortunately the path of compromise between freedom and tyranny leads only in one direction, and the path back to freedom is a bloody one.
I hope you'll read some based economics (Thomas Sowell and Milton Friedman) and philosophy. Reject Nihilism, Hegel, Marx, Foucault, postmodernism and deconstruction.
What you describe as plan first / implementation second, I would call consequentialism - or the idea of knowing the outcome before making a decision.
The wonderful emotion of wanting to help people becomes perverse when you hurt them even if unintentionally as the case in California's energy policies - you must know the consequences of policies, decisions, or positions you take.
I'm rambling so I'll sleep now, but try to find your core values and stick to them, communism spreads through demoralization (see Yuri Bezmenov) and destruction of the past as a way to control to present.
Much love and respect to you, brother. You'll be okay. Based media will be a thing and you will help to create it. Probably need to leave California but the demand is there for awesome movies and media that aren't infected with bullshit narratives.
And if you decide to be a security guard or stock grocery shelves or drive a trash truck for the rest of your life, your dignity and your measure as a man comes from how you treat your family and neighbors, how well you raise your children. Keep perspective, motivation, and discipline.
Feel better man and get some distance and perspective. Whatever you focus on becomes your reality. Remember all the nasty crap and blackpill material that is going on in society today relates to the bad actions of a small percentage of a small percentage of people. Most Americans are just normal people.
Don't give up and remember to vote Trump 2020, the future will get a lot brighter aand better
I fucking hate this stuff. I honestly hope none of it is true for the sake of the children potentially involved. But if it is true it is of paramount importance to investigate and prosecute this. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, but I never ever want to see any of this evidence. Bless our law enforcement who do have to deal with this depravity.
