I know it's tempting to frame it like the right end of the spectrum is somehow not as extreme as the left, but that's not how it works. Either side has an extreme faction. As long as either side believes in a "by any means necessary" thinking, or a belief in coercive controls for a people's own good, then they are dangerous and will invariably become authoritarian. For our own good. At the moment there are people that are afraid to point this out, admit it, or to try and discuss what's to be done about it. But they are surrounded by paranoid eyes that don't dare be caught outside the narrative.
Maybe we are playing a neat game. Ok. Yes it's extremely important we hold our rights and freedoms to be extremely important. Just truly, extremely important. Absolutely. Without question. Also, it is terrible to be a political extremist.
