Not everyone who is right-wing is imperialist.
Not everyone who is right-wing is a wife beater.

Not everyone who is right-wing wants to "strip away the rights of queer people".
Not everyone who is right-wing is bigoted.
Not everyone who is right-wing is anti-BLM.
For someone who supports a movement that claims to stand against assigning labels to people, you sure do seem to not have too much of a problem doing it yourself.

Yeah, just the vast majority.
And the few supposedly "not bigoted/brutal/dictatorial" ones have absolutely no problem tacitly endorsing all those things.
Right-wing is a label of ideology - a label that many assign to themselves freely, yet also a label that many to whom it could imply may have motive to deny. It is one that very much is an explicit statement of actively held philosophical, political and likely practical position, as well as a self-selecting group, and thus, it allows for far more inference than other types of labels.makes him or her right-wing.

True. There are also the ex-wife beaters and the would-be wife beaters.emotional abuse, on the other hand…)
Right wingers are the ones making those laws.
Right wingers have been the ones supporting imperialism.
Y’all have chosen to take on a label that is shared with folks who act like this. You’re not born right wing, you’ve chosen it. So maybe you should ask yourself why you’ve chosen this label if you don’t like when people make these associations about it?
Yet everyone who is right wing seems to be willing to excuse all this, and the ones actively making things worse putting those that excuse them up in front of them as their shield against accountability. You are willing to defend those things and dress them up in shitty Halloween costumes pretending they’re actually something noble. “America First” “Restoring discipline to the household, ending the war on masculinity, and reclaiming respect as the head of the family” “Making the hard choices and taking decisive action to be tough on your enemies when others might coddle them hiding behind things like laws or rights” “Protecting your children from being led away from the reproductive agenda by acknowledging that sexuality and gender identity are not uniform or the existence of such people as anything but a predatory threat that must be treated like wild animals” “Race realism, restoring truth to history by erasing it, and bringing back merit based employment by doing away with DEI hires that obviously aren’t qualified despite being demonstrably competent/productive and replacing them with the deserving workers whose qualifications are assumed based on being the right race and religion even if their performance could be described as subpar.”
People are backed into a corner and fighting for their right simply to exist right now. If the only way out of that corner is right through the people that backed them into it you don’t get to act shocked or indignant when they fight their way to the other side of that threat. You really want to be one of the things standing between the desperate and their safety? Nobody will shed a tear when you’re face down in the mud hypocritically shocked the people you allowed to be treated as an active threat to you would dare actually act against you when the threat to themselves posed by this treatment became too great cursing that you didn’t keep them trapped in that corner.
Do you support invading Greenland?
Have you stopped beating your wife, OP?
Would you vote a certain way in the midterms to ensure Don Old Fart isn’t denied of the right to be an authoritarian?
Would you be against making bigotry illegal?
Would you disagree with Republican Arnold Schwarzenegger being pro-BLM? Certainly to his face?
Another Republican - Gen. Chuck Yeager - refused to endorse Don Old Fart. A past POTUS was so against some… thing that he was previously instrumental in denying the ultimate imperialist, misogynist, bigot & racist of more than just being those vile things but denying it of the right to exist by forcing it to being its own Final Solution to the Nazi Problem in a hole in the ground & via a Walther PPK. Who was that person who was previously Supreme Commander of the Allies in Europe during WWII: ultimately becoming Commander-in-Chief of the US Armed Forces he was part of? Dwight D. Eisenhower. Who said ‘I Like Ike’: twice? Republican voters.
Not all Republicans are right wing.
Fine, you’re not a raging numpty fuckwit bigot. But the fact that you still lump yourself into a group that loudly and proudly skews towards the ‘raging numpty fuckwit bigot’ demographic tells us that you’re comfortable with people who are raging numpty fuckwit bigots.
Still not a great look. If you know that members of your book club are pyromaniacal assholes, and don’t kick them out or seek a different book club, you’re admitting you don’t have a problem with pyromaniacal assholes. I trust I’ve made my point, yes?
Confused?
