Comment on Why isn’t "Democrats would never get away with this" seen as a problem for the left?”
NachBarcelona@piefed.social 1 day agoLeft politics generally supports
social change, equality, and greater government intervention in the economy to help the marginalized, often favoring progress over tradition, and is associated with values like social justice, workers’ rights, and expanded public services.
I hope that helps.

The right also supports all that. It’s just disagree about who should benefit and what the government should intervene about.

Oh yes, the well known progressive right 😂.
The right naturally doesn’t support any of that to any extent. They’re about their own wallets (that’s what you meant with benefit I suppose). Words have meanings, my apologist buddy.

the left supports their own wallets too. everyone does.
nobody is voting to give their money away to other people.

There’s more to ethical politics than just money. Might not seem like it from below.
