Humanity’s constant and, by the laws of physics, the unavoidable inclination is to minimize energy use. We naturally take the shortest route between two points. Just like a rock flying through space moves along a straight line, our bodies and minds naturally seek the shortest distance, shortest time, least energy consumption, or least costly manner to complete all tasks facing us. This is “the principle of least action.” This principle goes a long way to explaining the Left’s hostility to Jews and support for Hamas and its fellow travelers.
