Why do liberals lose their minds over state laws?

This is the second state law liberals have lost their minds over. First was the Georgia voting law, now its the Texas abortion law.

They are freaking out because conservative states are doing things they don't like?

Why? We don't protest when California does something crazy, perhaps we should?

They’re all for federal laws so long as they control power at the federal level.

Federalism versus supreme central government.

It all has to be as they want.

Complain over laws that don’t like that are common sense in nature . Complain about how we need to follow the science on crucial things but their ideas about them are the opposite of actual science . Same libs will complain about cops when their own don’t follow actual laws and get hurt or imprisoned .

I believe one reason is that they are scared to death that the next law they disagree with could be the first domino that falls and ultimately bring down their Utopian fanasy of total government control.

See FA Hayek. He called the left 'Central Planners.'
Their world view has always been that life is unfair and the only thing that can make it fair is an all powerful central authority through total fiat.

Federal govt is their best source of power now. But the endgame is world govt. Then we shall have an equal and just world.

Leftists are authoritarian by nature. As much as they mock the Christian moral code, even the least forgiving evangelical bible thumper pales to a leftist for self-righteous zealotry. Complete power has to reside in their hands not only to change the world to their desires, but to punish those who think differently.

State laws and federalism suggest their way may not be the right or only way. A leftist mind can't process that.

The best way I've heard it described is this:

If conservatives don't want to eat meat, they won't eat meat. If liberals don't want to eat meat, they want to make it illegal for everyone else to eat meat.

They don’t like local control of anything: police, schools, etc.

States(and their govts) are smaller than countries and allow for diverse sets of laws. The Left(and RINOs) want it as big and bloated as possible with D.C. in complete control.

They don't really care. It's all for show.
