Norm was fairly right-wing and said some pretty unacceptable things., but he was an undeniably talented comedian and I'm glad we have his body of work to remember him by.

Mr. MacDonald had this to say about the sentencing: "In Nebraska, a man was sentenced for killing a female crossdresser [sic] who had accused him of rape and two of her friends. Excuse me if this sounds harsh, but in my mind, they all deserved to die."

In case you don’t know where to look. This (and other comments) is well documented and plenty discussed. I don’t know if I’d say he’s right wing nor would I say he’s left wing. He was definitely bigoted and sexist.

Anti-trans is hard to point left or right because pro-trans is centre-right

But I’d say violence against them is a right wing opinion

The rest of his views could be left though

pro-trans is centre-right

People on the left are gender abolitionists (xx and xy is all gender means and everyone is an individual do it never goes past that) you can transition but that doesn’t make you less of a man/woman

Obviously trans doesn’t fit in that but on the left they blame society and want to change it so there aren’t any trans.

Then you get the centre right like this website where they talk about gender identity and being trans because “born in wrong body”

Then you go right/far right and they blame the individuals

I feel like people here just associate left with utopia so any opinions they have must be leftist

As far what’s right/just that’s up to the individual and not really worth getting into because people online aren’t going to be swayed one way or the other

You are very confused

I would like to tell you as a leftist myself that that is not what I nor anyone I've ever met believes
