I’m guessing the people that you consider to be the “left” are who people on the left consider to be the “right”. This isn’t a left/right ideological issue. People should be allowed opinions and we should each be allowed to agree or disagree, in whole or in part, with the opinions of others. Through those opinions, agreements, and disagreements we should each form our own morals.
We lose our ethics and our society when we stop listening to each other’s opinions and morals and instead dismiss each other because they are not from “our side”.
Ah! but that’s the fun part: Facts don’t care about your politics… That’s why they are facts. But you are correct if you feel facts seem to always side with the left…
What is not to understand? Facts don’t care about all kinds of things, you or my politics, our feelings, etc, etc. They have always existed just waiting until we understood them.
And again, the left tends to base their politics on them. Which is why it seems to rightwingers that facts always seem to “lean to the left” (It’s part of why they never seem to like experts, they also always “lean left”). But it’s just because progressive politics tend to base their reasoning on logics, facts and therefore: truth.
Basing your world view, morals and laws on a religion or your feelings (Maga) usually leads to nonsensical outcomes. Just like we are seeing now in the US, Israel, Iran, etc…

Guess we’re losing our society then because the left and right definitely refuse to listen to each other.
No, one side has been trying to explain 1+1 equals 2. The other keeps shouting about the DOW being at 50.000 and aliens are demons.
They are not equal. Like… At all.
The left doesn’t listen, it dictates.
Because you do not want to hear, does not mean the left is wrong.
And yes in that case, telling you the facts sounds like dictation.
Because the left claims something is a fact, does not make it a fact.
Ah! but that’s the fun part: Facts don’t care about your politics… That’s why they are facts. But you are correct if you feel facts seem to always side with the left…
They are facts because they don’t care? That makes just as much sense as them not caring about feelings. Facts don’t have cares.
