Oppositional thinking leads people astray. They tend to think that if a given group is wrong; then the opposition must be right. However, when the ruling coalition and opposition hold the same foundational views; then switching parties just changes the form of the underlying problem.
I think that, in the United States, the left is worse than the right at the moment. The left controls the schools; so it sets the foundations for the narratives that the ruling class uses to control the people.
The right fails because Conservative leaders seem to think that oppositional politics will somehow restore the principles of liberty. History shows that base oppositional thinking just leads to greater division.
