It's not the left's fault that the right are hateful assholes.
There's no doubt that the right has targeted young men via traditional insecurities about masculinity. They've made a concerted effort to paint the left as weak, effeminate, soy boy, etc., because it plays to the insecurities of young men. This is why we see the domination of right wing thought in traditionally masculine spaces, such as gym culture, comedy, gaming, sports, MMA, crypto, etc.
