    I left off children from that question on purpose though, I can think of hundreds of examples of that, but I can’t think of a law that was passed, by the left, in the name of protecting women, trans, or minorities that actually strip rights away from them or anyone else. Since you’re saying both sides do the same things, I think my point was that both parties are corporate shills, so they’re both stripping rights of the working class, but the right is the only one doing the other stuff to a degree that strips certain people of basic human rights. I guess if I were to rephrase my original definition it would be “Anyone that’s OK with laws that oppress only certain people, just for being a different kind of human.” There is overreach in other areas of concern on both sides under those guises, and that’s a very big problem, but they effect most citizens equally.

    By the way, I’m just a ranting, drunk, stoner. Since you seem genuinely interested in analyzing this stuff, there are far better sources than me :)

      That’s fair haha!

      You gave me a lot to go off of, and I’m using that to target my searches better. Politics have never been my strong suit, so this is confusing to me.
