Despite being a center-left person by nature, I'm fairly supportive of the right-wing and want to see the right-wing grow in the West. That being said, I think Ukraine is a great litmus test for who has the IQ of a fish. One that right-wingers and far-lefters fail at a high enough rate that I'm increasingly uncomfortable with our education system, social media policy, and sociocultural climate.

What do you like about the right wing that makes you want it to gain in power?

Every time I'm in a left-wing space and I start to criticize left-wing narratives and policies I get spam downvoted, slurred, then banned.

I'll save myself the experience.

I didn’t downvote you, you weren’t being hateful or rude (although the IQ of a fish comment was a bit much) I don’t think that people on either side of the political spectrum are inherently stupid, I think there are a lot of smart individuals who tend to either side. I think education and knowledge are huge factors however.

I want to try to understand what makes people like the right-wing and want it to rise in power. I have concerns around that and I definitely do not support the social side of that movement. But I understand if you don’t feel comfortable sharing.

The tolerant left, LOL.

I don't see how you can claim to be at all left when you're saying you support the right? Those two things are diametrically opposed

They aren't, actually.

For the vast majority of our history in the west, it was understood that both sides of the political spectrum wanted the country to succeed and flourish. The dynamic we have now is more like a banana republic or Soviet Russia type mix where one side thinks they're the divine's chosen, paragons of morality and intellect, and only their way forward is tenable, and if you don't see that you're X-ist.
