I once asked the hexbear community why they are pro-genocide against their "opponents" and got called Hitler when I didn't think it was reasonable to commit genocide at all.

From my point of view it's the extremists on both left and right that is the biggest problem.

The leftists looks at right extremists and think to themselves that the entire right-wing is like that. Same goes for people on the right. They look at what the leftist extremists do and then argue that it's how people on the left think and act.

But just like all of life, politics is not black and white. Just because I agree with the left more than the right that does not mean I agree with the entire leftist politics.
