They've got it backwards anyway.

We are the left.

They are the right.

They are the right-wing authoritarians everyone was warned about.

In the National Assembly just after the French Revolution, the nobles sat in the right wing.

The commoners sat in the left wing.

We are the commoners. We are left wing.

Don't know how this got twisted over the years; probably like the party "switch."

There was a chamber "switch," too, I guess.
