So you're saying you're just as blind as they are then? Both sides have horrid people who treat others like shit and act as if their side does no wrong. BOTH SIDES DO IT.

Jesus Christ, open your eyes, neither party gives a shit about anyone. All they care about it self gain.

Do they? What do left leaning people do that compares to the way conservatives dehumanize trans people?

I mean, even if they do it in one area to a greater extent does not mean the left is some pure hearted prince. The general online left is straight up vicious.

Oh for sure, I despise tankies. But there is no “left” in the United States that holds power. The United States is controlled in all 3 branches of government and has the Supreme Court controlled by Christian nationalists. You can’t compare some blue haired tankie on Twitter to the power that the right has.

Yeah, but I still think it's a problem worth addressing. The left didn't lose the US election because people decided to switch over to trump, his support was the same amount, they lost because people who had previously voted left or might have voted left didn't vote at all. Part of that imo is because the left's purity tests, demonisation, toxic viciousness etc which is caustic to coalition building and depresses the vote, especially amongst people with mixed views.
