The problem with the left isn't their goals. It's how they attempt to achieve them. Censorship, blackballing, blackmail and if given the chance concentration camps, secret police, Hitler youth, etc. These things are as bad or worse than white supremacy, sexism, etc.
The most successful political route by far is enabling the most freedom for the most people possible. I think most Americans agree on this. Their problem is the method. You can't achieve freedom through repression of any kind.

In small party I agree with you. Not accepting other opinions is not cool. But this is not a leftist thing. It is a problem with the extremes. I mean we have all seen the wording-policies Trump is enforcing.
I prefer having a differenciation between solution oriented people and populist. It does not really matter in which party or what direction someone is headed.
It is important, that politicians are transparent about their goals, ideas how to achieve these goals and to follow them in a way to search for common grounds. Look to find consensus above the party they are in. Such people can help our society to stabilize.
And rather call out specific actions, then trying to attack a whole group orparty. Since when we disqualify censoring speech, then we can fix something. Biggest threat to it is currently the US government. Even when they try to point fingers on every other country in the world. They do it on purpose, so the population is not watching their actions.
Their goal is extortion and forcing me to pay for other people’s healthcare so it’s not a good goal either regardless of method
