I disagree with that Chris - I think the left's arguments are genuinely superior. Would you seriously maintain that denying climate change, or the efficacity of vaccines, have any merit ? See my earlier post here: https://climatejustice.social/@GeofCox/117188641734534432
I do think the left has some serious weaknesses in argument. Some of these are hard to avoid: precisely because of our respect for reason and evidence, for example, we often have to insist on the complexity of reality, rather than telling a simple, compelling but misleading story.
But I think the left also often communicates less well than it could...
Fails to judge correctly when setting out a simple direction of travel is better than lots of detailed policies;
Focuses (over recent decades) on identity politics rather than 'bread and butter' economic security;
Thinks that the right care about reason and evidence - not realising that we can't 'win the argument' because their point of view is based on authority outside of discourse (often simple self-interest) - what appears to us as reason is in fact just rationalisation;
Etc...
