But not everything is a left right issue. I hate to bring the spectre of Brexit but plenty of die in the wool remainers couldn't even countenance a compromise on Brexit which is part of the reason why we've got the worst of all Brexits. Look at the internal Labour squabbling with Starmer fighting yesterday's battles to keep another Corbyn out. Look at the Scottish referendum. Endless displays of people just shouting across each other and very little of consciousness raising and building bridges. There's no point in being right if people don't want be seen with you for being an asshole. That's why it's difficult to pick a side sometimes, because even though you might have a nuanced view on something, you're just going to be lumped in with the jackass with the loudest voice.
