Those people feel exactly the same way about the other side. What you mean by “alt right” is unclear, since the term get’s thrown around a lot, but I think it’s important to recognize that people on all sides feel the same way. There’s been a significant shift to the left in mainstream media in the last decade or two, and people who aren’t on board with it often react by going in the other direction.
I don’t know what JadedSkywalker said before that this message is replying to as he deleted it, but I agree a lot with this reply. Political polarization is very big in the United States, and many times the far-left radicalizes people to the far-right, and vice-versa.
I myself was rather infamously far-left back in 2020/2021, harbouring extremely negative views on gender roles, Britain, sex, ect., but have since stabilized to around centre-right and hold far more nuanced and even positive views on said topics. I genuinely can’t look at those 2020-1 posts because of how cringe-worthy they are now for 2024 me.
Nuance is dead in politics, and yet is the magic word for political ideological harmony.
I could go on about where I think this all comes from, but the site rules do not allow political debate, so I will end this little mini-essay here.
