Actually, let me put this a better way:
It’s not a simple matter of “right wing bad, left wing good.” Liberals and progressives and moderates have all kinds of problems of their own, class divides, internal racism and sexism and transphobia, plenty of shitty garbage.
But the “right wing” is JUST all of those shitty things, all of the time. All of it. That’s the issue. There are probably redeemable people all throughout the rest of the political spectrum, all kinds of complexity and depth going on there, I’m sure, but conservatism IS just simplistic old-fashioned storybook evil. Each and every single last republican politician in America endorses and believes things that are cruel, hateful and dangerous. We know that for a fact. Every single last little tiny one of them has a beef with gay people or mexicans or climate science or muslims or some other petty, ugly, ignorant little prejudice they concocted for personal gain.And that means each and every single last person who votes for a republican or considers themselves “right-leaning” in America is an asshole we’d be better off without. Not just a few “radicals,” but all of them. You can’t be a good or frankly even “alright” person if you consider yourself a conservative. It’s that simple. If you don’t like that, you can stop being one anytime you like.
