I voted left (A). In principle, I am more in line with C (a mix of right and left) but the current situation leads me to see the right as enemies of the public. They deny science, embrace ignorance, rally in support of old, white men, decry diversity, etc, etc, etc. They are dinosaurs intent on holding us back. Progressives are about improving ourselves while conservatives are about holding us back - and bitching about how we are not still mired in values appropriate for the stone ages.
It would be good if the two sides had meaningful debate. It would be valuable if the conservative side offered a common-sense rebuttal of why liberal proposals might not yet be practical in the current environment. But this is not what they offer in 2018. They offer nothing but utter ignorance. They offer utter nonsense like climate-change denial. They offer hatred of people not Caucasian. They offer hatred of ideals which do not include American exclusivity.
I'm supposed to respect these idiots? Sorry, but I can't. As I see it, as it is at present, only the left in American politics has any inkling of respect from me. I loath the right.

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
