Comment on A rant on left-wing online infighting

I’m very left-wing but the thing with ‘us’ is, that we still have principles. The extreme right is long past any kind of principle or fact. They just live in a fantasy world inventing things to get themselves angry about. Anyone whi disagrees in the slightest with today’s narrative will be cancelled from their community. But for us the facts still matter. And that meand we sometimes disagree.
I wouldn’t call someone like Newsom ‘left’ though. He’s left by US standards but for the rest of the world he would still be pretty right-wing.

Thanks, I respect that. I don’t want you to change or abandon your principles just for the sake of being agreeable. You know you can hold different principles in a variety of topics, and my main ask is that in discussion we be clear where these principles align and where they do not.
