Blindly attacking one side or the other, further creating a rift between the left and the right (or any groups within America) is the thing that Putin really wants. So congratulations. I'm not a right-winger, but I live in a very right-wing county, and talk to a lot of folks who are hardcore conservatives. Aside from Tucker Carlson, nobody on Faux News is pro Russia. Most of my conservative friends have labelled Carlson a traitor to America for his pro-Russia views and have proposed boycotting Faux News until he's removed. (sad overreaction, IMO, but whatever) They are so pro-Ukraine it's not even funny. And they point to Russia and China as the #1 reason why everyone in America should be investing in assault rifles. As far as they're concerned, the left is responsible for: * Wrecking the supply chain (via reactionary, and overly aggressive anti-work measures during the pandemic) * Causing rampant inflation (via ridiculous spending and quantitative easing) * Ruining our ability to manufacture goods domestically (by making it literally impossible to manufacture many necessary components such as fertilizer) * Driving widespread monopolization and centralization of industries (by making it impossible for small businesses to remain solvent during the pandemic (or previously)) * Making it impossible for people to defend themselves for no good reason (banning assault rifles, when they are responsible for 1/1000th of the deaths of handguns) So according to them, Left-wing means weak America, and Putin loves it. I think I wrapped up their current platform in a nutshell. I think most of those bullets are over simplifications, but my point is that is that both the left and the right have legitimate concerns and they both want what is best for America. It is important to remember that before blindly attacking a group of people.
