    Sorry, this is the case on both sides. I’m a leftist, and I see it happen from my side all the time. Deflecting and claiming only Republicans do it is ignorant or blatant gaslighting.

    I’m called a nazi sometimes from people in my own party. It 100% happens.

      Hell, “gaslighting” itself is a good example of this phenomenon, and it’s mostly on the left.

      You know your political views are truly independent when both the left and right accuse you of siding with the enemy.

      I’m all for saying both sides are bad, because they are, but I’m guessing you either did something to warrant being called a nazi or found a cringey liberal to argue with.

        You’d guess wrong then, though yeah, most liberals who label others nazis for ridiculous reasons are cringy.
