I was moderate left
Then you probably still are...
Right-wing means no egalitarianism.
Some conservatives represent that better than others.
Trad (Evola, Guenon, Carlyle) conservatives emphasize the Old Order, which included ethno-nationalism.
If you project your moderate Left onto something else, you're just creating illiterate horseshit and befuddling yourself.

I feel the exact same. Some of my opinions have changed around a little, but fundamentally not really. Despite that, I've gone from being basically on the left with some fiscal conservative thrown in for good measure, to being constantly called a far right racist sexist misogynistic Russian American transphobic homophobic Nazi.
It's like.... Do you people even?

It must be either genetic or lack of time. Either folk are biologically predisposed to follow the herd or the independent minded have hands full with family, work etc and don't have time to read what's actually happening.
MSM brainwashing does its job, taking out the most vulnerable low information folk. 1984 was spot on
Hope Elon can destabilize their ecosystem, fingers crossed

I think most people generally want to leave others alone, and there's a minority of people who very deeply want to control others. I think that that's where the current divide is. You have the people on the left who want to control every single person write down to their thoughts, and you have everybody else who just want to live their life and don't really care how others live. I still think that way, but I can absolutely see why people who keep on getting pushed around eventually just go "forget it, I'm cutting this off"

Extremists on both sides. Left wants WWIII, Neo nazis in Ukraine have been killing civillians for a decade, just for speaking a different language... even though genetically and culturally its their people. Mass murderers both ways
Its the responsibility of the rest of us in the middle to protest & make noise. That way you will at least have no regrets when they send you to the death camps

Maturity is realizing that if you do not demote bad and promote good, bad wins out.

Gotta beat that out of people. It's one of those "easy answers" that is always a lie.
