Watch the whole video before commenting. As I’ve expressed in the past, I don’t self-identify as a "leftist" because I believe it's too broad to meaningfully...
Leftism encompasses a broad swath of ideals. At it’s core it’s about egalitarianism - ensuring power/wealth is not hoarded - but then you get fragmentation on both what that means and how a society can get there.
On the other hand, rightism is all about consolidating power/wealth at the expense of anyone and everyone. So rightists tend to snowball while leftists debate the best forms of leftism.
Those on the right have their own splits and power struggles. Not everyone can be at the top of the hierarchy, after all. I think their advantage lies more in the fact that they have existing systems to rally around, whereas the left is trying to create something new.
