If you were in Hell, and were suddenly offered a way out, what would you do to accept that offer and remain free from Hell? Anything. Absolutely anything.
For your average Leftist, childhood was Hell. The teasing, the bullying, the loneliness never ended. It went on 24/7/365, forever. It was torture that never ended.
And then, as they started to get out of school and into the real world of jobs and/or college, they began to find others like themselves: misfits, nerds, losers. And, unlike their school years where they were a small, isolated minority, there were a lot of these people. Suddenly, they could have what they always wanted more than anything but could never have: social acceptance. Granted, it was social acceptance by other damaged people, but they could have actual friends now! Besides, they all hated the normal kids by this point, which gave them something in common right from the start.
And, if you hate the normal people of the world, if you hate the society that abused you for your entire life where do you go? You go to the politics of the Left, which promises to destroy that society and make all of the normal people pay.
They banded together. They drank the Leftist Kool-Aid like it was nectar from Heaven. It sated their hatred and their thirst for revenge. It made their hatred seem righteous!
Did they believe the Leftist propaganda? It's hard to say. I tend to think that they believed it from the first word of propaganda that they heard. It reinforced their hatred. It gave them a reason for their hatred that seemed, on the outside, to be more justified and less childish than, "They bullied me!".
But deep, down, that is what Leftism is all about. They are getting their revenge upon the people and society that hurt them.
In addition they, perhaps consciously, perhaps subconsciously, knew that if they didn't believe the Leftist catechism, they would once again be ostracized and exiled. In other words, they'd be thrown back into Hell.
They will do anything to prevent that. Anything.
