People on the right would tell you that the left are using ethicality to hijack politics and push through corrupt agendas.
There's probably a lot of truly ethical left people, but there are obviously also very corrupt people that exploit these things. The right would argue that they at least try to do things in a moral way. You have to draw a line somewhere, you have to have limits, but also personal rights.
I think it's good that we have both sides, because only one will get things out of balance and make it very easy for corruption to sneak in.
>using ethicality to hijack politics and push through corrupt agendas.
What does this even mean?
- OpenAI being hypocritical to be "open" but backstabbing society
- Sam Bankman Fried who used "effective altruism" to raise billions
- Companies hypocritically implementing DEI and other woke hypes, doing all the marketing but internally don't actually change
Just some examples
None of what you said is a characteristic of "the left". CEOs of the fortune 1000 are 2 to `1 Republicans and 99% assholes regardless of party affiliation.

>At the national level, a majority of Republicans (56%) qualify as either Christian nationalism Adherents (21%) or Sympathizers (35%), compared with one in four independents (25%) and less than one in five Democrats (17%). Overall, roughly one-third of Americans qualify as Christian nationalism Adherents (11%) or Sympathizers (21%), compared with two-thirds who qualify as Skeptics (37%) or Rejecters (27%). These percentages largely have remained stable since PRRI first asked these questions in late 2022.
>Majorities of Christian nationalism Adherents (67%) and Sympathizers (53%) agree with the idea that “immigrants are invading our country and replacing our cultural and ethnic background,”
>majorities of Christian nationalism Adherents (61%) and Sympathizers (54%) support “the U.S. government deporting undocumented immigrants to foreign prisons without due process.” In contrast, around one-third of Skeptics (34%) and one in ten Rejecters (11%) agree.
We are literally not figuratively the 1930s Nazis. We will never be healed as a country because the right are by and large literally monsters and if we manage to come through this unscathed they will never admit it but we shall never forget it.
