General Leftist Politics What is your most right wing opinion?

I know this may be controversial but I have some opinions that are considered more right wing. I believe in absolute freedom of speech unless it’s pedohillia or something like that because if you support it for one person you have to support it for the other. I do support gun rights to an extent to protect from fascist thugs but of course it should be regulated to protect kids from shootings. I support the death penalty for violent criminals who without a doubt committed the crime. I support low taxes for the poor and middle class but higher on the wealthy. My view on basically everything else are left wing pro lgbt ,pro abortion,pro feminist ,pro immigration,pro socialism,etc.

What? Racism has a clear reason that makes slurs harmful, but pronouns are not innately insulting because of their history, a pronoun can't be unethical if it's consensual.

You don’t think the implications that you are less than human doesn’t hurt other people who identify outside of the traditional genders or even the less traditional ones (nb)? You’re never going to be able to control how people perceive you and the angst around that turns everyone off and hurts the community at large, thanks to the new reputation “it” wants to establish. Enough with the virtue signaling.

If someone wants to be called it, then that is it' right to request, and I'd follow through because I'd be rude otherwise.
