The problem is that the right MAINSTREAM is comparing itself to the fringe left. We say something that Trump did is crazy and they point to the fringe parts of twitter left. It’s not equal. It’s not even close.

There will always be extremists. It is crazy to point to them when explaining why mainstream opposition gets so crazy. If the standard is “We can’t have our way until there are no extremists that partially agree with us.” Nothing will get done. Ever. Because they will always be there.
