I think a strong understanding of Marxism helps seed the revolutionary optimism that makes watching the news more bearable than for liberals who see the world as a scary swirl of chaos and no way out. Lenin says it well:

Despair is typical of those who do not understand the causes of evil, see no way out, and are incapable of struggle.

This fits the liberal nihilism to a T.
