This has been highly politicized (intentionally), so there is a tendency there, but there are countless people on both sides (or neither). Most importantly, the fake left-wing political parties have most aggressively embraced restrictions, and the pseudo-left media has edited their work such that it appears to be an exclusively right-wing phenomenon. In fact, racial minorities are some of the least vaccinated groups, and they don't tend to vote right at all.
It is irrelevant, though. This isn't a right/left issue. It's a tyranny/freedom issue. BLM came out against the Vaxx Gestapo in NYC just recently. Naomi Wolf decried everything from the lockdowns to the mandates, saying that the latter produces a "Jim Crow two-tier society" & that the Oregon Health Authority is becoming a "fascist agency." Children's Health Defense, founded by Robert Kennedy Jr. (no right-wing nut himself), called the mandate “an affront to human dignity and personal freedom because it violates our basic right to control our bodies“ in their lawsuit against Rutgers.
There could and should be common cause on this one. This is too fucking important. Don't miss the forest for the trees. This isn't just about the virus or even pharmaceutical profits (they should consider their donations more than repaid) to the government. This is about laying the groundwork before the debt bubble collapses. This is about changing the relationship between Western governments and their citizens, prepping them for being locked in their houses and forced to comply. It's an opportunity to gauge their ability to resist and prepare accordingly for whoever or whatever can be identified. It's a chance to abrogate more rights (forget speech, forget movement/travel, forget privacy, etc.) and institute more draconian norms. We just HAVE to unite regular people on this NOW.
Watch How to Start a Revolution DVD documentary and read From Dictatorship to Democracy the book. And don't listen to badmouthing of Gene Sharp because his ideas, formed for good, have been weaponized by - who else? - the US government.
It's not. That is the MSM narrative. Anyone who uses critical thinking and decides that they don't want to risk the vaccine adverse events to "protect" them (when it doesn't) against a virus that has a 99.5% recovery rate.
For decades the right wing had no problem crapping all over the idea of personal autonomy in the form of anti-abortion legislation; now, suddenly, when they are in the cross hairs, they cast themselves as champions of personal freedom? How cute.
Equally hilarious are their late-to-the-party protestations regarding censorship. They were fine with censorship when it applied to those criticizing Israel's illegal occupation; but now that their Orange Man is the target, they've been forced to reconsider.
That's why as dangerous as the faux-left is now, the right are equally unreliable guardians of our rights. Partisanship is poison. Don't swallow it.
If I were swallowing it, I would have voted for Biden in the last election. I did not. I'm pointing out that the right wing has a lousy track record when it comes to the current debate regarding personal autonomy and censorship, and so any real solution lies outside the right/left divide that dominates so much political discourse.
While I would agree that the right wing have some ideological discrepancies. However, so does the purported left wing, especially considering most are swallowing the MSM narrative regarding Covid and are skewering our civil liberties to do so.
I'm just glad to see the right wing alerted to the tyrannical policies of our government....something that they ridiculed when OWS were out in the streets. Now, they are experiencing what we did.
Sometimes it takes awhile to change your perspective, just glad now both Occupy and the right wing have solidarity.
I align with ideas I find meritorious and care not which wing they supposedly come from. If those on the right are serious about real personal freedom and not simply wallowing in the conditional hypocrisy I outlined above, then I'm delighted. I didn't see it in Trump, and I haven't seen it in congress. The left -- and I hate to even call our liberal political figures that -- are acting like the authoritarian right of two or three decades ago, yelling for censorship and more authoritarian rule. I detest it and will never vote for it. So I find myself outside of both of these simplistically labeled wings.
Instead of wings I feel a more accurate lens is class -- elites vs. the rest of us, which has pretty much been what all the fighting's been about since the first king raised an army to guard the grain.
So, yes, partisanship is poison, and I'm waiting for more people to recognize this fact.
Why is it right wing to oppose mandates? I don't get it.

100% agreed about the debt bubble.

On one hand you bash the right wing......and then on the other hand you claim "partisanship is poison." You are swallowing it, my dear.
If I were swallowing it, I would have voted for Biden in the last election. I did not.

That’s the narrative and it has worked wonderfully for the social Marxists.
