This looks like the Left seizing on a very narrow form of something that’s supposed to be dear to the Right, and twisting the hell out of it. This isn’t about balance, this is about crazy distortion.
It should seem to be easy enough to beat this by keeping a level head and being patient and making a case, but at the same time the Right is developing its own squirreliness. It develops its own little litmus tests and can’t even agree on a hierarchy of desiderata. No wonder the Left gets away with it. It’s fighting something equally shallow.
“but at the same time the Right is developing its own squirreliness. “
Half the Right or better are part of the cabal too. Surely no one thinks they are going to let the republican party not be controlled any less than the dimocrats.
Anyone that thinks we are not and have not been ruled globally for some decades probably should take a closer look.
