A big issue is “systemic” or “institutionalized” injustice. I define the Right as those who say it hardly exists in the U.S. anymore. I define the Left as those who say it “explains everything” and it is the total cause of all unequal outcomes. 1/3
These two sides are by far the loudest and most numerous voices on social media. Others (like me) say systemic/institutionalized injustice certainly exists—but we break into groups that say (a) but not often, or (b) often, or (c) quite a lot but not always. 2/3
Those of us in these groups, however, are all depicted by the Left and the Right as “really” stealth members of the other evil side. It's important to remember that each of these sides has gradations. If we did, it would change some of the conversations and rhetorical points. 3/3
