Literally everyone with a voice in politics in controversial, so that's not saying much.


Some are more controversial than others. Some also seem to enjoy controversy more than others.

Things are truly twisted when conservatives are being called socialists.


Unfortunately controversial because impressionable people have been misled into believing that anything right of liberal progressivism is fascist and evil. How do you recover from that?


Or perhaps anything left of fascist evil is considered controversial?

We can each play this game.


Progressives identify as such. “Fascist” is thrown around as an epithet to dehumanize people who you disagree with, to justify murdering them in cold blood or motivating others to do it for you. It’s not really comparable.
