Hopefully the momentum is increasing by the minute. "The Left has become the Right" is now being used as a term to describe how the hardcore Left has become what it used to loathe: Restrictive in what words are allowed to be uttered in public, etc.
This is one of the many excellent long-form political conversations that can be found on YouTube nowadays. This one includes one of my favorite thinkers and writers, Matt Taibbi. These are three liberals who see what has happened to the hardcore Left, and how it has become repressive, and how the Right is now the side that is more libertarian in its freedom of expression protections.
For example, from Taibbi: "One of the features of the new politics... is that it's losing some young people because the codes of behavior are so strict. The tendency to be that person who is constantly policing the speech of everyone else in the group -- that used to be the conservative in the room, and that was why a lot of us became political liberals. The rules have been reversed now".
They also discuss how the "left intelligencia" is denying that Cancel Culture is even happening.
MORE MORE MORE PLEASE!!!!
