Much of the left exploits the freedom of expression to express themselves in indulgently self-righteous ways that could only advance peripheral goals, but that have the advantage of threatening to require only minimum personal discipline and demand even less real sacrifice, in lieu of the doing the much harder, but the only worthwhile, tasks of getting a clear perspective, prioritize objective while keeping eyes on the ball, define a discipline but ruthless strategy to attain those objectives.
The difference between the left, at least the left as seen in modern times in the west, and the right is the extreme right, while consisting of people of largely the same moral weakness as those on the extreme left, is fundamentally a ideology that glorifies in and seeks vindication through the abuse of the weak and the disadvantaged. So by nature the right, especially the cowards who seeks vicarious justification, are inclined to be more ruthless when they are still protected by remnants of political civility.
