Is it? Is it really hard to tell? This isn’t about what you’ve “heard from both sides”. Which actual rights is the left seeking to take away that would make you so confused about which side is being referred to?
- bongoman42 2y agoThe left is not angelic in this regard. The right to self-defense. The assault against merit in hiring and education. Large parts of the left are explicitly pro-violence and anti-women as long as it is perpetrated by Islamists.
- caeril 2y agoYes, it's hard to tell if you're capable of objectively viewing the absurdity of modern politics. The left is very clearly attempting to curtail the right to free speech, free association, and economic freedom. The right is very clearly attempting to curtail the reproductive rights of women, and freedom of movement across borders. Sure, if you're inured to the "my side is angelic, and the other side is evil", it's easy to tell. But stepping outside of that, it's pretty clear that both sides are gunning for their own specific versions of tyranny.

- bongoman42 2y agoThis is actually a good breakdown of the two sides. There is an additional thing that the divergence between the people at the top of the two parties and their respective bases is far larger in the case of the left. And the inclusivity of the left has brought together several groups that are highly antithetical to each other and makes for far less predictable and unstable leadership.
