8. The left has always been the target of the right

Not the other way around.

If you look at history, most of the time the right tries to kill liberals. Liberals like progress, change, egalitarianism and power for all people. Just the opposite of what the right wants.

The right is funded by capitalism's handful of filthy rich. They abuse the population to make their wealth, then to keep their stolen loot, they must prevent progress, prevent democracy, prevent change and target liberals to keep their dirty money.

Our government once dropped bombs on its own people because they were on strike and wanted a union. They never bombed factories that cut off little children's arms or hands.

It's a war and the filthy rich use the right and their organizations, including religion, to crush the left with violence or propaganda. They use cons or manipulation or starvation or homelessness or economic crashes or austerity or Laissez-faire economics or free trade or Ayan Rand or Milton Friedman or the Proud boys or Nazis.

The right has the money and power. The left has the numbers.
