Idk about equally, but often enough, both sides are indeed wrong.

"Enlightened centrists". I make fun of you people constantly.

Nothing wrong with accepting that both sides of anything have good and bad shit going on. I couldn't imagine just blindly following one side 100% even when they can also do questionable stuff.

Sure, but the problem is that rather than arguing the finer points of how to combat climate change, for example, we have to argue about whether truth is truth.

There are leftists that get things wrong

Yes, because you're so blinded by your indoctrination that you can't accept the flaws of "your" side.

“Climate change exists”

“Religion shouldn’t allow governments to prevent basic healthcare needs”

“January 6 was a failed insurrection”

These are the things that the right calls indoctrination.

And the hard left calls not important enough to bother voting.
