LOL!
Sounds like you’re backing further away :)
I think I hear you saying:
“I’m not a fan of the thought police, but I will defend others right to support it.”
Did I get that right?
So this “high” moral position… devours itself.
Seems like the weakest position yet… essentially “I don’t favor that, but I’ll go along.”
This is well short of defending the rights of others to disagree with you… which takes moral courage.
I don’t see anyone on the left defending that anymore.
Also, I think the right actually didn’t do what you are suggesting. I think they called them “fakes” (RINO, Republicans In Name Only). They often would be heard saying, “why should we vote for you? If we wanted to vote Democrat, we might as well vote for the real thing.”
Calling out fakery is honorable.
