The difference between Right and Left is the that your average people on the right think the people on the left simply have bad ideas. Those on the left, on the other hand, think those on the right are bad people. This is why the right argues against the actual policies they disagree with while the left engages almost exclusively in identity politics, and hotbutton buzzwords i.e.: if you're against Obamacare it's because you're "racist", if you're against a tax increase you must "want the poor to die", or if you want a travel ban from hotbeds of terror where no vetting can be done it's because you "hate Muslims", etc. Makes it very hard to have a civil discourse and make positive changes. The left wants you to think like them or you're a pariah, the right just wants you to think period.
