It’s also very interesting how everyone apparently agrees one side is perfectly correct and never wrong and the other side is always wrong and abject evil.

Perhaps politics changes us more than we want to admit?

That side believes the other side is mostly made up of people like this:

And frankly, that's a pretty big problem for a side to have. I think a good question that isn't being asked in earnest is "why would those people, who seem to have a stable income and lifestyle, subscribe to such a radical view of reality?"

There are legitimate views from the side viewed as 'evil', but most of those people seem to have gone silent since no one is listening.

When the Q adjacent views and white supremacy ideas are gaining popularity and nobody on the same side of the aisle with the Q people and white supremacists are saying "hey that stuff isn't right, we don't agree or believe that" I think it's safe to assume that they're saying "hey we are actually okay with Q believers and white supremacists"
If you still believe that either political party in America has any real differences (besides caring slightly more or less what people do with their private parts) I'm kinda surprised you bother to browse this particular forum, there's a lot of better places where people read simpler books you should probably be hanging out digitally
