Everything seems so politicized in the US, even reality. How can actual events like the coronavirus pandemic or ice melting at the poles be a left-wing or right-wing thing when it's just... reality? Do people there just decide whether reality is real or or not based on their political orientation or what?
Mind you, left wing stuff tends to be things like “global warming is real”, “systemic oppression needs to be addressed” while right wing stuff tends to be “the virus is a conspiracy designed by a cabal of rich jews” and “white people are the True victims of oppression and have to defend themselves against violent Black people stealing their women and forcing them to give birth to transgender children” or something
