    That’s just economics though

    The right still pushes for religious liberties and gender identity while the left looks to abolish those things

      Left and right are primarily economic, and we can only look at one axis at a time.

      Otherwise, what you would call, idk, a devout Christian commune where people share everything? Left, because they’re equals, or right, because religion?

        You would call one opinion right and one left, you already know what a political compass looks like and they would fall into economically left, socially right quadrant until you find other beliefs

          Then we should define social left and right and keep it separate, and have one type of left and right as default (probably economic) or always mention it.

          Because otherwise there’s a giant field for manipulations.
