Everyone who is scared, angry and frustrated, but also too weak in their knowledge and debate skills, will instead choose to "manage" people on their own side so that they can feel like they're accomplishing something other than what feels like pointlessly banging their heads against conservative orcs who have no interest in an actual debate.

At least libs and people on the left care about how they're perceived so they will engage and debate with each other to try to fight for public validation, and these two things together make for our side being the most fractured, most corroded and most unrealistic political base.

The right doesn't have kids who watch intellectual debates or read books about how to understand every side of every political spectrum or the details of literally any marginalized group, they don't even give a shit about looking good for their own supporters because they are mindless, dumb and unified.

If you want to feel like you've outsmarted someone, debated their lies down and "TOTALLY DESTROYED" someone, you have to pick someone on the left because only then will you actually have a back-and-forth you can win.
