The Left and Right Fundamentally Disagree About Human Nature

by Garrett Mullet | posted in: Politics | 0

At the core, what we know as the Left-Right political divide is not actually due to partisanship for its own sake. Rather, fundamentally different premises – about human nature, reality, truth, and goodness – lead to starkly contrasted positions on every issue.
