I actually find this talking point so braindead that, to this day, I still have a hard time believing that people genuinely believe it. (lemmy.ml)

And my point was that even in the left, murder, discrimination and racism can exist.

People just choose to think their position is ideal and the opposition is flawed. This type of brainwashing is disgusting.

Correct, and my point was that they can't. If you view everyone as equal you can't make yourself a dictator. You can lie to yourself about your value, most people do for better or worse. But if everyone is equal you can't decide to boost one group over another. Or if you do decide that is better and you deserve to be in charge, then your views have shifted right. That is my understanding of left vs right in it's most basic form.
