Once again I reflect upon research that shows liberal/progressive people have fewer conservative friends than conservatives have liberal/progressive friends.

And how although one explanation popular on the right is that left wingers are less tolerant, another explanation also explains the data:

That many many more right wingers are just assholes.

@valoisdubins

I truly want to understand this dichotomy.

```The left claim tolerance and diversity but in the same time they will cut off (ban/deplatform) anyone with a divergent thoughts or opinions.```

@voidabyss

You know perfectly well that the right are busy banning books across America and inciting terrorist attacks against minorities.

Why do you think it is appropriate to be so deceitful to me?

First of all, lets have a honest and civil conversation, I am not assuming any ill intent or deception from your part, it would be nice to do the same toward me.

> You know perfectly well that the right are busy banning books across America and inciting terrorist attacks against minorities.

I am not too familiar with American politics, can you please pointe me to trust worthy articles or sources that shows that the right is staging terrorist attack against minorities or example of a book banning.

Thank you!

Although I am against book banning, I am in favor for parent right to choose what subjects/books their children are taught in school.

> More from the precious tolerant right here:

I never claimed that the right were tolerant, terrorists are deranged individuals whether they are right or left extremists.

> So which country were you talking about?

I am talking in general but from a Canadian perspective.

@voidabyss

You’re Canadian yet pretending to know zero about the US. And also happy with parents censoring books.

You’re proving my point about people like you being assholes.

Bye now.
