It's because your position is indefensible given recent history and the trajectory of the political landscape.
Fair enough. You're more than welcome to your opinion. But to my mind, what's indefensible (and ridiculous, frankly) is painting absolutely everyone on one side with the same brush, no matter how much you may hate that side's ideals (or lack thereof).
Uh, one side is unrelenting about suppressing everyone else's rights, and has demonstrated that they're willing to take control by force and violence if they don't get 'their ideals'. If you're on that side, you're an asshole, and being 'painted' as an asshole is the least that you deserve.
Please stop for a moment, step outside your yourself, and ask... "Am I the baddie?"
