Is the reason leftists likes to constantly rag on the Right because unlike leftists the Right are not very good at making their own side look bad?

Of course there are a few exceptions that makes the Right look bad, but unlike with leftists they are not the norm.

The left really does not have much to point to when it comes to positive accomplishments. Liberal policies have resulted in sharp rises in crime, high energy prices which cause increase in the price of everything else, plummeting test scores, and more deaths from fentanyl and many other things that were caused by liberal policies. Since they have nothing positive they can say about themselves they try to criticizw republicans.

Because for them, it's all about control and robbing from us. We would be happy if they just went away to some other country and ruin it and left us alone. But no, they have to take us down with them.

Any time people use statements like this the first thing that concerns me is the us vs them mentality. I understand the strength in numbers but lets be honest most people don't invest the time to get all the facts or admit when thier side makes mistakes. We live in an information age and still we can't rely on the information thats out there because there is no system in place to get the facts right. We need to be honest with ourselves and be aware that we are barely learning how to communicate as a species and on a global scale where things can easily be misinterpreted or looked at wrongly because of cultural misunderstandings. We judge and put people in boxes that are innacurate because we let our fear of things that we don't understand rule without taking the time to truly understand that for the most part the majority of people are not bad just misinformed. The bigger problem is we let the few minority that has bad intentions control the wider population through fear and emotion. Then to defend our position we look for confirmation biased or other biased atributions to do the wrong thing. We attempt to find only the information that defends our position without considering the info that does not and embark on a mission to prove how right we are and how wrong they are and end up wasting time and not acomplishing a whole lot. We are human we make mistakes We shouldn't care if some one prays to god or a stuffed teddy bear so long as we aren't using these things to impose our way of life people who chose another path that doesn't interfere negatively with our own. When they do interfere we should communicate and compromise and try to find solutions that come from logic vs emotion or fear. Not always easy I know.

No. Its because the right wing is pretty much always the losing side of history, AKA the people who rejecting progress and scientific advancements and civil rights etc.. Nothing of this has changed today, the right wing is mostly wrong and they will be proven wrong in history books long after they are dead.

But most specifically today, its not just that they are wrong, they always are, but that there is a serious issue brewing. AKA Fascism. Something that not only wrong but will get countless people killed at the very minimum which is something people rightfully reject with righteous condemnation.

Hahahahaha, no your side actually makes itself look bad better than we do. It’s just you guys don’t notice it because you’re in the fog of the cult.

Look up a documentary on heavens Gate, the cultists who died to leave earth on a spaceship. They literally talk to each other on videotape about how disrespectful non cultists are to them when they preach.

“They don’t get it! They don’t get that we leave our vessels and travel up to God’s spaceship that’s following the Hale Bopp comet.”

This isn't more a left or right thing right now.

This is an American political issue.

Both sides have leaders and news lying to them about how horrible the otherside has become.

So right now.

No matter what your political party is, they have this impression that the other party is the most incompetent, hateful, American values destroying monsters.

[RolandCuthbert]

It is hard to understand what you mean by left and right. Because so many folks think they are right nowadays. . . when they are just batshit crazy.

[jshm2]

Nope. Its because being labelled "Right" means they have nothing of merit to say.

Like saying "here is my racist friend, he's a fuckwit, so don't mind anything he says"

[blissinanarchy1]

In politics, both sides make themselves look completely fucking retarded. But the side you’re sympathetic to, you’ll most likely not see it as much.
