So it’s not wrong to stereotype, as long as you can claim “moral superiority” while doing so?
I personally think that’s been the narrative the entire time… All I can offer as an ambivalent is that it don’t make it right, but at least your version is less wrong…
I suppose that is what we vote on these days though, whatever’s the least fucky…
Except that it puts us all on two “teams” which just encourages hate. Yes, the red “team” is worse in every way, but unless we make personal connections on both sides as human beings we’ll just keep fighting each other and the ruling class will walk right past with their gobs of money and influence. Petty name calling plays right in to that.

it’s a little bit more objective that “claiming moral superiority”, as one side does a lot more harm than the other

So moral inferiority then… If you prefer…
Bad faith arguers are so much easier to spot than you apparently think
