Also I saw someone mention that JK Rowling has basically been cast as the villain when her other views are liberal and to that I say that the prime difference in behaviour between left and right is that the left hold other left leaning people accountable. The right has a culture of defending anything right leaning regardless. Just look at when you mention Right Wing terrorism is the vicinity of a right wing person and their first instinct is to bleat on about the left rather than denounce right wing terrorism because they see 'right wing' and automatically feel defensive.

It doesn't matter to the left if you present yourself as a liberal if you have views that are rooted in bigotry, you will be held accountable for those views. Standards like that apply to everyone, not just the 'other side' unlike the right that allows right wingers to get away with whatever as long as they are right leaning.
