Nah, but I think you're describing YOUNG leftist people.

Nah, I've had lots of people (of all ages) flip out on me IRL if I question black lives matter or toxic masculinity or the wage gap or climate change or trans issues... In the vast majority of these discussions, I've remained perfectly calm and civil and watched as grown men and women act like little babies.

It has mostly been 40+/50+ people.

I don't talk to 20 year olds very much. Maybe they are worse? It wouldn't surprise me.

I still hate the far right more, though.

Far right and far left are both awful. Far right is probably worse? I don't know.

It's like comparing two pieces of shit.

Your comparing the left to the far right. That's not exactly fair.
 
speaking of grown adults acting like babies….I was in Walgreens the other day looking for childrens motrin cause my neighbors kid is sick and she asked me to pick some up for her, in the isle there was a older lady, maybe 60-65ish and she was standing with her back up against the opposite shelf she was looking at, I walk past her and say excuse me while I’m looking no big deal, we’ll I can’t find the Motrin so I walk past her again still can’t find it so I end up walking past her 2-3 times and she suddenly explodes “don’t you have any manners your suppose to say excuse me “ so I said I did say excuse me and she starts screaming and going on about how I didn’t say excuse me every time, so I told her if she were standing closer to the shelf she was looking at I’d be able to walk behind her, anyway she goes on for a coupe minutes till I was finally just like, lady you realize your throwing a temper tantrum over nothing in the middle of the store your acting like a child, she screamed some more then took off huffing and puffing , some people are just so dumb I wonder how they live as long as they do

There really isn’t even a far right in the mainstream. You can’t disparage Judaism or push for the white race in the open in America. The far left can be very vocal, and dominates the landscape. The neo liberals that run the country sort of use them as a distraction while they pillage the wealth from the country.
 
@Dropperneck

Agreed. Also, I think there are way more far left people than far right people in Australia... but it's hard to say, because (as you said) the far-left are loud and proud whereas the far-right have to hide away and keep their opinions to themselves.
 
Would it be a fair deduction that the "left" is inclusive while the "right" is exclusive?
Just wondering what the biggest obvious difference was...?
Thoughts?

I think it's more complicated than that, because by their very nature liberals are not inclusive of the viewpoints from the right, which is what @bird.brain mentioned.

And economically conservatives are more inclusive than liberals.

Politics are often over generalized like that.

But in a vague sense, it's true, particularly when it comes to identity politics, immigration, etc.
 
I think its like this:

Liberals: "I can do whatever I want, but I don't want you to be around me, because you're wrong."

Conservatives: "You can do whatever you want, but not around me weirdo. Get off my land."

Half joking obviously, but both think they have the moral and intellectual high ground.
 
yea i don't like the religious side of the right....and i don't like the anti-abortion stance either

and the left prefers to limit the freedom of speech - and they wanna force vaccines on everybody and blah blah - too much of a one-size fits all mentality....socialists

they get carried trying to correct the past - they cancelled Aunt Jemima cmon
 
and they cancelled the Redskins and the Indians....the Commanders and the Guardians

cmon

The left is basically a cult, composed of bed wetting ex-Scientologists who were breast fed too long.

The right is essentially a group of guys in Florida, hunting alligators, building meth labs, and running from state troopers.
 
The right left paradigm is just a way to divide us while the banks bend us over. Even knowing this, it’s hard not to react to the establishments grooming operations, cultural Marxism, robbing of the nations resources, and extreme duplicity. I get why boomers on fb are at each other’s throats.
