This feels generally correct yet wrong in some way I can't put my finger on. Curious if anyone thinks they know what it is.

The single-dimension left-right paradigm is stupid and overly-reductive. I mean, that's pretty clear even in this election: Voters gave Republicans the whole federal government, and voted for abortion rights. How is it possible that they could move right and left simultaneously; or, is there maybe some other principle in play?
