I think to a degree the left pushes people out though, as your lefty card needs to be spotless or it’s revoked.

Sometimes a person can say one thing wrong and they’ll be labelled an alt-right fascist, and not part of “the group” on the left, especially online.

Obviously that doesn’t make people right wing, but it is a problem that pushes people away from more left leaning views/groups. Rather than try to discuss and correct, people will berate and ostracise.

You think that doesn't happen on the right? There's a huge fight in congress now about which idiot is the Republicanest. They're all calling each other RINOs.

Ok, I'll bite, give me an example of "one thing wrong" that gets you labelled as an alt-right fascist.

Saying you are against abolishing or defunding the police.

Lately, not supporting Hamas tends to bring out those accusations

Not supporting Palestinians (you know, the civilians, including children) tends to bring out those accusations.

The way you formulated it, however, indicates that you think that Hamas = Palestinians or at least that it's fine if Palestinians suffer for the actions of Hamas, something only a racist would think, so in your case the "accusations" are associated to you being percieved as a racist.

Maybe the one thing the entirety of the Left agrees on is that Racists are scum, not least because racism is one the main defining features of the oldest most murderous kind of rightwing extremism there is: Fascism.
