Comment on Political discourse

  The left is also fighting itself. Literally the comment chains in this post are prime examples.

  People who probably align with the majority of the stances, tearing each other down with bad faith arguments, grandstanding over the remaining things they disagree on.

  “Perfect is the enemy of good.”

  I might not politically align with the average .ml user, but my views are a hell of a lot closer aligned with them than MAGAt views.

    Where is the left fighting itself? I only see leftists fighting liberals in the comments.

    The left largely fights by arguing, which can lead to better ideas if people are open to listen. That isn’t always the case, but it’s a possibility. The right is fighting with homicide.

      Liberals perceive criticism for enabling the right and opposing the left at every opportunity as left in-fighting.

      The left identifies the liberals as part of the right.
