Otherwise, to outsiders, it just looks like everyone is yelling abuse at each other & misrepresenting each other & its unclear who is right.

The fragmentation of the Left & its abandonment of reason for hyperbole is making the right look positively coherent & respectable rn.

And that couldn't happen if everybody calmed down & looked at the situation reasonably. The problem on the right becomes clear then.

The emotionally on the left is well justified in the US. Our "left" politicians have moved ever rightward for decades.

It matters less whether it is justified than whether it will help to address the problem.

I don't think that we define the problem as the same thing. I want to do away w/ modern American conservatism, drown it in the bathtub.

Not here. Again our right-wing is insane. They elected a white supremacist to the highest office in the land.

Not really. I just want the Left to win again and be worthy of winning again.
