meanwhile the right is positioned as the underdog, against the mainstream, the media, and the public opinion (coz you can't be public about being right wing nowadays)

The realistic bell curve of political stances in modern society and across most platforms squarely puts the global average as slightly left leaning. The problem is, extreme lefties have gone so far that no one with a brain can support the left anymore.

there's also the component of censorship that is interesting. On twitter they censor everyone, on youtube they can only censor creators

so twitter becomes visibly lefty, while on youtube, when they censor creators, the viewers on the right start to consume more right wing content

Reasonably speaking, I'm center-left. But the left is so absurd that I find myself needing to rally around traditionally right-wing outlets because they're the only sane option left.

what I don't get is why lefties that are against the current left aren't more vocal about it

but anyway, the right is quite welcoming to them

if they want to change sides

Trump was a democrat all allong, after all

It's because it's not socially appropriate. If you are against the super-extreme politically correct "but not ALL Muslims are terrorists, therefore we must let ALL Muslims into our country, INCLUDING the terrorists, to prove we're not racist!"... then you're a racist.

then "be the racist"

im racist

and im ok with that

that gets you beat over the head by a bike lock by your antifa-loving leftie friends

I don't even think of "racism" as a problem tbh

the market auto-balances

in the way its described at this point? No its not

if it were 1930 I'd say "this is a problem"

yup

but at this point, its basically a non-issue at a population level

modern representation of what racism is: I'd be worried if you're not. Modern racism can be described as I did above.

as long as the laws are neutral, most examples of racism are just that, examples

ironically, the left is becoming more racist than any racism that existed before

"becoming"

they already were

Modern "racism" - Cops show up to arrest child rapists in germany and they all get away into the community, leading to future child rape. Police make a statement, "These men were... men. We cannot describe them further or it would be racist. So remember, if you see... MEN... they might be the rapists."

they were, but they were in small numbers

no. They were racist at a party level

sure, I agree on that

the intensity or way in which that presented itself has morphed but its been at their core since their inception

but the intensity is different now

imo

yeah of course

and the way in which it presents to the world is different

but its still the same core it was always

Modern "Not Racist" as demonstrated on Twitter, and by the New York Times hiring practices: "FUCK ALL WHITE PEOPLE, Y'ALL DESERVE TO DIE, IT'S TIME FOR A WHITE GENOCIDE #CancelWhitePeople"

they're racist against virtually everyone

just do what I do

including whites, blacks, asians, hispanics

say you don't identify as white

just people in general
