> left wing views are overwhelmingly dominant because they are objectively correct (global warming is real, the earth is not 6000 years old, evolution is real, etc).
Maybe it’s only in your country where these are “left-leaning” views…and I even doubt that.
Example; I agree with these statements but I’m not “left leaning” by any shot.
Like many American commenters (I'm guilty of this as well), we assume a US-centric viewpoint a lot online.
You're right that these positions are not left leaning worldwide. Unfortunately, they are very much left-leaning viewpoints in the US. There are still more than enough voters on the right who genuinely believe the converse that they need to be catered to by right wing politics. And, on the other hand, left wing politics needs to put significant effort into fighting and refuting objections. Arguably, this puts more strain on the left, which might be another factor perpetuating all this.
