I keep hearing people say that the far-left is significantly less organised, more fragmented than the far-right. Why is that? (And to be clear: I’m asking about the far-left, not just the left in general (though they may be linked)

    Because they’re legitimately crazy. The far right is obviously insane as well, but in a different way.

    The far left has a snowflake mentality, every individual person has to be special in some way. This causes a same general “side” but because of them all being “special” in some way, it’s limited.

    The far right has the mentality of they’re all cheering for the exact same football team. They’re a mass of identical people at a football game all cheering together. It’s typically called a tribe mentality. Because of those they have a singular goal and not a “I’m special” mentality.

    That’s why the ar right person asks you who you voted for and you say Kamala they have a temper tantrum. They are so into a person they’ve never met, never will meet or know nothing about them personally, but to them it’s like their team going to the super bowl intensity. So they assume you must have the exact same intensity for who you voted for. When in reality, I think Kamala was dog shit too, but I’m not voting Trump.
