I think it's more a case of "I've been a malignant brain tumor in your head for years and now you want to kick me out of my home? So much for the tolerant left."

This is simply those who are benefiting from the status quo not giving a shit about continuing it so long as they remain unaffected. Which hey maybe they'll be fine and it never will. But that's not most people, and so when the end comes for these libs and they cry about how we're as bad as the right, we can only tell them to line up and eat a bullet, they had plenty of chances to turn away from the path they took.
