    It works on the other side too - e.g. “I’m vegan btw, and voting to restrict access to your ability to eat meat”.

    The difference seems to be that there was no incentive for Putin to set vegans vs. meat eaters against one another, while he very much is getting a ton out of having set conservatives against liberals. Whatever way we choose to fight one another, he wins.
