I disagree and agree.

Reality doesn't have a left bias. People want to raise their children right with "strong" morals. E.g. "God says, don't steal"... Ofc, most of these morals are basically be caring for others. Now that caring for others that we like to promote because it makes us feel good. That has a strong left bias.

I am strongly in the camp that I want to be a net positive for everyone else, as I was raised to care. But technically it isn't reality itself that is bias to the left. Just no one likes dicks!

Yes it does. Right wing policies tend to be objective bullshit when measured against cold hard facts in almost every field.

I think you can say that as of today, people on the left on average have a stronger sense of reality. Reality doesn't have a political bias, it's just reality. We're the ones who bring our biases to reality, not the other way around.

I mean, the whole reality denying transphobia is, of course, a right wing position. But you can be right wing without being reality denying.
