I'm pretty solidly in the left, but taxing unrealized gains seems like a dumb idea. Extrapolating this, it's like being taxed more because my house I'm living in doubles in value. So if I never sell, I just keep paying more because I could hypothetically sell at some point?

You’re already taxed like this (if you’re a homeowner) because you pay a fixed rate based on the value of your home each year in property tax. If the value of your home goes up, so do your property taxes.
