I feel much less threatened when I get ratio'd by conservative people than when I do by progressives. I blocked almost nobody this last ratio, whereas time before that I blocked everyone. I'm not totally sure why; I think I imagine right-leaning people have less power to hurt me?

I'll make a guess: when you were ~15-20y old, your viewpoint was roughly "the Blue Tribe is right and just and is the wave of the future, except maybe with the one flaw of not valuing free markets enough, but Reds are truly backward savages" Am I close?

(basically I am guessing you're feeling symptoms that mirror my own because part of your intellectual upbringing mirrors my own)

I think that sounds right. Maybe the progressives are the likely ones to sound a voice of opposition, whereas the conservatives know their battle is farther removed. Progressives will know that you'll hear them, and maybe conservatives don't want to make the effort?
