The right because they have institutional power.
I really thought I was done, this time and I believe I am still mostly on topic, here.Madner Kami wrote: ↑Fri Dec 09, 2022 11:37 amProving once again, that your apology and promise to not engage this anymore was worthless drivel. Great job, DBF.

Leftists say they'd cut cops slack if they improve but how am I supposed to believe most of them when they seem to hate every thing, every single cop does, regardless if it's good or bad?
And even if policing is reformed from the outside, why should anyone want to join, when, everyone would still hate them for no reason?
I was abused for being autistic and that gave me an "all sins are equal" mindset when it comes to prejudice, "mere" interpersonal prejudice, included. Any win for activists is a victory, of course but I won't be satisfied till even the most innocuous prejudice is eliminated from the human condition, forever.
I also noticed you skipped my point about leftists removing agency from criminals, which is just as insulting as the way right wingers treat them.
In realistic terms, right wing insinuates lack of directive power, whether by person or constitution. Left wing insinuates principle judgement foremost before familiarity.McAvoy wrote: ↑Sat Dec 10, 2022 7:52 amIn simplistic terms under that simplistic narrow view of things, being on the left is about the collective. Everyone getting their fair shake, everyone pays their fair share, etc. Right would be about the individual and their freedoms. Doing or saying anything under the law. Their level prosperity is their level of capability and drive.Draco Dracul wrote: ↑Sat Dec 10, 2022 7:11 amCollective power means that most individuals gain significantly more power than they have now as most power is held by a small number of individuals.

At least in the US, 'leftists' tend to believe responsibility and power rest outside of the individual, while 'rightists' tend to believe in individual power and responsibility. In both cases, regardless of the facts of a given situation.
It's not surprising that leftists would tend to take power away from individuals in favor what is 'supposed' to be a collective response.
Under simplistic terms.
Problem is something as simple as freedom of speech and how it's interpreted. That is what drives that wedge between right and left. Left for example and would be about you can say something but doesn't protect you against repercussions. Whereas the right would say you should be able to say anything without repercussions.
Nope. Grade-A echo chamber. A world where the Left dances under silver moonlight with frolicking unicorns and the Right breathe fire and have red skin.hammerofglass wrote: ↑Sat Dec 10, 2022 9:42 amYou're projecting so hard I could use you for PowerPoint presentations.clearspira wrote: ↑Sat Dec 10, 2022 9:38 amNo, McAvoy got it right the first time. You are living in a Grade-A echo chamber there.hammerofglass wrote: ↑Sat Dec 10, 2022 8:12 amDisagree with that last point. The right thinks THEY PERSONALLY should be able to say anything without repercussions, but not the rest of us. If they believed everyone should be able to say anything they wouldn't be doing the book bannings and such.McAvoy wrote: ↑Sat Dec 10, 2022 7:52 amIn simplistic terms under that simplistic narrow view of things, being on the left is about the collective.

You simp for "make it illegal to let children know racism or queer people exist" DeSantis every time his name gets mentioned on here, you know damn well what you stood up to be counted with.
The Left do not have institutional power even though you have a Left wing government with a Left wing controlled Senate that trades drug-dealing lesbian basketball stars for violent arms dealers? I can REALLY see the latter happening under Trump. Yep. Totally.
Because people that crush organized labor are totally left wing.clearspira wrote: ↑Sat Dec 10, 2022 7:56 pmThe Left do not have institutional power even though you have a Left wing government with a Left wing controlled Senate that trades drug-dealing lesbian basketball stars for violent arms dealers?

Face it, what you just said is crap. Its not the 1950s anymore.
Yeah, because the Russians would never arbitrarily arrest somebody. And they'd never trade political prisoners for their foreign agitators. And Republicans are so homophobic they'd leave Americans to rot in the Gulag instead of attempting to do something.clearspira wrote: ↑Sat Dec 10, 2022 7:56 pm The Left do not have institutional power even though you have a Left wing government with a Left wing controlled Senate that trades drug-dealing lesbian basketball stars for violent arms dealers?
