The left is a big sack of wet cats. Frenemies at best. Filled with gatekeepers on what the left “really” is, or should be.
It makes sense: The right wing is defenders of the ancien régime, and there's only one way for things to remain the same, so they easily agree. The left wing wants something new, and it would be shocking if everybody agreed on what change should look like.
On one hand we aren't sheep, on the other hand it's really really hard to get us to work together and compromise.
People with an understanding of nuance and complexity have differing opinions about complex, nuanced topics
Damn, who'da thunk
There’s a piece of me that admires the right’s capacity (the capacity, not the right itself) to staunchly stand together as one.
Even so, the ability to question is the cornerstone of democracy. We can’t exist in democracy without it.
Our problem is getting rabid on single issues and willfully derailing the entire train and everyone on it for said issues and still solving nothing. Which does make me wonder how much of the rabid single issue scream presented online is actually Russian in origin.
