Reality has a left wing bias because everytime the rightwing sets forth a policy claiming that it does something, facts prove that their policy does the opposite. “Get rid of sex education and teen pregnancy will go down” incorrect, everywhere that tries that has an increase in teen pregnancy. “We’re going to reduce welfare to make people stop being lazy” incorrect, welfare recipients already have jobs, and taking away their ability to eat makes it more likely that they won’t do those jobs well. Etcetc
Right wing policies aren’t all just American right bullshit.
Google what right wing means outside of the us. And outside of the far right Parties that parrot the American right. You would find that there are a lot of right wing policies that aren’t factually provably incorrect. Or at least not obviously less flawed than competing ideas.
I don’t like the political right but I rather admit that it doesn’t have to be completely stupid ideas, create a social awareness that there is an alternative to left wing politics that isn’t putting e.g. trans people’s lives in danger.
You can be right wing and not be a bigot. You can be right wing and support social welfare.
If you act like it is either support the left or support the full-on fascist hate mob, you get more of the full-on fascist hate mob. I rather be honest and acknowledge the existence of “non fascist hate mob” political right and by doing so, take power away from these hate mobs and protect the victims of the hate groups. othering through Demonization works best if both sides are doing it.
