I mean, generally it's because they think anyone to the left of them has no chance of changing anything so they believe that they must choose the D in order to stop the F. They gave up on their own values so often and so thoroughly that showing them that supporting the D is equivalent to supporting the F is tantamount to a direct attack on their core Identity and forces them to confront themselves and their compromises. This causes rage.
