I really don’t. Right, left, or otherwise, if you have to dissemble or outright lie to convince people of the righteousness of your cause, then perhaps your cause isn’t so righteous. (Related: I found this critique of activism from the hard left thought-provoking).
Yes, in my opinion. And you can criticize both. A duolithic conception of either/or is in large part what’s gotten us (collectively) into our current mess.
