That's probably exactly what the other "side" is thinking.

For example:

They think that allowing people with penises to to change in women's locker rooms just because they identify as women is wicked, so they aren't being silent about it.

> the locker room situation with Thomas, who although she has transitioned to being female hormonally and identified as a woman, still has male body parts https://www.swimmingworldmagazine.com/news/lia-thomas-teamma...

The pendulum eventually swings to the other side.

(I'm somewhere in the middle with I suspect a majority of people - it's the extremists that are the loudest.)

So both-sides then?

Look I think we should disagree on fiscal and social policy, and be able to deliberate over these issues.

And have a system of government that allows for that kind of debate and representative vote.

But "one side" is dismantling everything that was still democratic about the United States and turning into a massively one-sided (even one-manned) system of control. So whatever your opinion or mine on social policy no longer matter, because it's all up to the whims of a single person, with no recourse for the rest of us.

The biggest problem is that everyone has their own version of good and bad, so all need to get up and action, to form sort of equilibrium.
Oh yes the country is going to shit but let's focus on fairness in sports that's really what matters
Yea, there's like 10 Trans NCAA athletes out of 10,000 so let's stop everything and focus on that.

Why aren't we laughing all day at the right because they're a bunch of fucking clowns?

Trump is the loudest and he represents his supporters
