It's not counterproductive when one side wants to do horrible things to people like me and my friends and the other doesn't. When one side actively endangers people and takes their rights away and the other doesn't. Those are very, very real issues to a lot of people, and acting like that doesn't matter at this point is just willful ignorance. You don't have to identify with one side to openly disagree with the other. You can prefer a system without parties or teams without refusing to stand up against a team that already exists, whether you like it or not, and has made their horrible views very well known.
