I think the political left is very well defined. They want authoritarian control over the economy and people's lives. But what leftists like best is that they think people like us will be punished. Sent to camps to be tortured and a re-educated or simply killed.
The political right is very poorly defined. It used to be that if you are on the political right you believed in a small government that did things like Justice/Law Enforcement, Fire protection and defense of the nation from other nations.
But after World War 2, the National Socialist German Workers Party, was somehow made to be perceived as far-right, despite the fact that this was completely incompatible with the original definition of the right. The Nazis were all about Authoritarian control and big government.
I think more than 90% of the worlds population has bought this lie and could not articulate when the political right is.
