It's also an essential feature of Western liberalism. These days, holding actual catholic dogma practically forces you to vote conservative or not vote at all. The left no longer has any respect for the sanctity of life.

No, not really. Irony, porn (sexual hedonism), and most of all, resentment, are defining features of the left. A left-wing stance is fundamentally a resentment based attitude. The only thing I'll give you is consumerism, that is not technically left-wing, yet most leftists are closeted consumerists who compare universities and clothes like suburban moms compare leisure sedans

I don't want to be "that guy" but did you actually read marx, engels and Lenin or are you just taking like this after having seen some pseudo red liberals in america?
Read carefully what lenin though about sexual hedonism
https://www.marxists.org/archive/zetkin/1920/lenin/zetkin1.htm
And read hegel on family
Read adorno and society of spectacle when it comes to consumerism.

What does resentment have to do with this? All socialist states always teached to not hate workers and people from richer countries.

Let's divide these issues into warfare, justice, and charity. Warfare is not always good, but it can be good. Wanting to spread liberty and topple tyrants is not inherently wrong. The specifics certainly can be, but the specifics aren't what's voted on. The death penalty is not comparable to abortion. A man is responsible for his own actions. Death penalty is part of the law, and our government has the authority to make and enforce the law. While I am personally opposed to the death penalty, there are plenty of arguments for it that fit well with much of scripture and dogma. With abortion, there is no defense. To believe an abortion is ever an appropriate measure outside of saving the life of the mother in immediate crisis is to deny that life is a precious gift. To say that their life will just be miserable is to deny Christ, deny hope, and deny salvation. In regards to healthcare, the issues are two fold--that we have a responsibility to care for our neighbors does not insist upon any particular system; what does it mean to care for our fellow man? Many people, like Penn and Teller, criticize Mother Theresa for not providing much medicine in her charity. But this is to completely misunderstand the Catholic understanding of charity and mercy. We all die. Prolonging life is not our goal on this planet. There are greater concerns than our physical comfort. The people she cared for were rejected from other hospitals. They were dying on the street. She gave them a place to find the comfort of other people, the dignity of respect, and the peace of dying in God's light. Health care is less important than Health, and health is not as simple as physical well-being. This is of course ignoring the fact that socialized medicine doesn't actually improve healthcare.
