Collectivism
“Collectivism was an important part of Marxist–Leninist ideology in the Soviet Union, where it played a key part in forming the New Soviet man, willingly sacrificing his or her life for the good of the collective. Terms such as "collective" and "the masses" were frequently used in the official language and praised in agitprop literature, for example by Vladimir Mayakovsky (Who needs a "1") and Bertolt Brecht (The Decision, Man Equals Man).[9][10]”

They’re more happy that they think their policies are beloved by everyone(which is why they need to stamp out the other perspective so bad).
You read Ayn Rand too. Or if you don't - the above is right out of her philosophical playbook about the communist ideology.
The Dem voter base is by far the more easily manipulated. Plus, your Mark Twain quote nailed it.
I got it off of Wiki
Many people vote GOP because of a single priority issue while Dims expect conformity to their whole platform.
