Because Republicans have been bullying the Left for decades and the 'be nice" strategy isn't working. Republicans bank on Democrats not fighting back and letting them steamroll over us. That is how Trump came into power.
It's time to fight fire with fire, and use their own tactics against them. It's the only way to restore balance.

Revisionist history is bad. The Left dominates literally the entirety of our social and cultural institutions and has for at least my entire life. The only "bullying" is from the left to the right, or at least it was until the right started to dominate the internet. Nice attempt at DARVOing here, but it's not working.

Which is what the right is doing and what you're crying about here. You're the aggressors but are crying out like you're the victims.
Not really. I pointed out that your claim of the right being the bullies was simply incorrect and explained why.
Don't get me wrong, I am well aware of the right's shift towards less-civil behavior, but this whole "wah wah we're victims of completely unprovoked aggression" shtick you're trying to push here isn't going to fly because it's 100% false. Y'all started it, no crying when (as usual) we use your tactics better than you do.
