That’s because most things that leftwing people believe in are actual facts and basic truths, and there can’t be much deviation on that. Like if you believe in climate change then believe in climate change. If you believe in equality then you believe in equality for all, no exceptions but the biases and intolerances of the right are many and varied(some dislike foreigners but are ok with gays, some despise both, some just hate Jews, some are even relatively tolerant and just believe in traditional conservative values in relation to things like government size and tax). The right encompasses the traditional fiscal conservatives, the religious extreme, the religious moderates, the conspiracy theorists, poor rural people that believe electing billionaires will be good for them etc.

You are kidding, right? The left are in their own bubble with their own "facts" and "truths" and at the same time they can't even define what a woman is.

They are a cult, a hivemind, and they live in a dangerous paradigm of moral superiority and "good and evil". People like that cannot be reasoned or argued with. They simply think that they are the good people and if you don't agree with them on any given point, you are evil and thus you can be totally disregarded and wiped off the face of the earth.

Things like the climate or equality are not as simple as they would like to think, there are nuances in things and much that is yet to be discussed and discovered. Most people want the same things and to be good to other people, but the key is in how that is achieved. That is where the disagreement comes from. How do we get to equality in a way that is fair to everybody, for instance? That's not a simple question. Or is true equality even attainable, or just idealistic and moralistic masturbation?

But yeah, the research does not surprise me one bit. These are the people who are ready to disown their family members for having the "wrong" opinions politically. Never seen that kind of zealotry on the right.
