Putting everyone into these little boxes and arbitrarily pitting them against each other

Just because you apparently don't have any strong political opinions and the status quo works fine for you, doesn't mean that everyone else's opinions are "arbitrary". What an ignorant thing to suggest.

I'm not disputing the validity people's opinions and beliefs, only that it's unnecessary to place a label on everyone based on those beliefs. What's arbitrary is insisting that we are different than those people over there just because they think xyz should be zyx and deciding they are the enemy based solely on that supposed difference.

Also, the status quo is to have a left vs right and to push everyone to one of those sides. Kinda exactly what I'm arguing against.
