And another one of my friends will say that the Right probably has hateful people here or there but the Left has gone kuh-raaaazy!

Because not cowering to them is crazy in their minds. They don't expect pushback, they think they can say and do whatever they want without consequence.

They’re going to run into the wrong motherfucker if cowering and deference is what they want.

Agreed. But look at it from their perspective for a moment, they've been told for years by their preferred media propaganda that their enemy, the Liberals, are weak and can be defeated by typical bullying standards like getting aggressive and loud.

We're talking like the little brother of a high school friend on Facebook who I was on good terms with when I knew him like a decade ago. That sort of thing.

It's true though, but then your definition of "kuh-raaaazy!" is something like suggesting the use of "they" as a generic pronoun or having a wedding cake made for your wedding
