I often tweet critically about the left more than the right, and I suspect this is because I see more bad leftist stuff closer in my social spheres, and only rarely bad right stuff. But I do think if I started hanging around more right wingers I would get more upset about it.

This is what people say often to me, but I gotta say it's not that obvious from my perspective that the left isn't doing less damaging stuff than this. I do agree the right is totally freaky and terrifying. But also what I've seen on the left is also freaky and terrifying

Like, it seems extremely extremely wrong and counter to everything I've been paying attention to to say that the left "just fucked up a bit". No, what they're doing is very serious and bad, let's not minimize it.

and the thing that adds to the fears of the left is that they are the winners, they won the culture war, so whatever they come up with we are going to get stuck with. I think that adds to the fears of the left because they can get way out there.
