The left feels like a movement yearning for the opportunity to create better times. There is disdain for the right, but not obsession. Fuck those guys putting up a wall, we need healthcare. Leftists also attack each other for mistakes, instead of externalizing and scapegoating it to the right.

7. Obsession with a plot against themselves. The right believes that the left is all communists who want to do all the things to them that they do to the left. In their mind it results in a perfect sniper’s alley where any shot should be taken at any time. They are obsessed with grievance.

In contrast, the left wants universal healthcare. Not to exclude meth heads or MAGA dipshits. Universal. House the poor, feed the hungry. The left is intolerant of fascists, but believe that if even MAGA voters get services, they won’t want to have them taken away.
