Honestly getting sick and tired of all the petty, obnoxious in fighting amongst the left. We can't even talk about things without generating a huge shitstorm (none of which will talk about the issue but rather how talking about it is bad) and this whole stupid "team" mentality where if you're perceived as not being 110% supportive of "the team" you must then be an enemy who must be banished and beaten up on.
I don't disagree that the 'left' lives in excited anticipation of any battle with the 'faux' left.
But as to why this is a 'left' thing... well, what side would you expect the right to take? "Women" or transpeople? Of course they're sitting this one out, and popping popcorn. If they were viciously and self-destructively arguing over who's the 'real' patriot, we'd do the same. Only a fool tries to stop two dogs from fighting, if neither is their dog.
