Yes-- we shouldn't be "othering" them or dehumanizing them, but tackling them ideologically, rather than hemorrhaging our own. They're able to unify and rally far greater than we are, because their fringes accept the utility of their center and vice versa. Like Vaush was able to raise $290k for Palestinian children in a livestream because Palestinians in Gaza are getting bombed. Kyle Rittenhouse's mom was able to raise $2 million for bail because she let her kid go out of state with and provoke violence with a gun he wasn't legally allowed to carry. The disproportionality of support vs nobility of left and right needs to be bridged, and I hope through conversations like this (assuming it goes how I think it will go) will only help the left and by proxy, the world.
100 % agree we should be arguing with the right wingers right now kinda depressing.
