Political manipulation by Russia, China, etc, have been using wedge issues to push people into extreme sides on issues, but they throw support behind the far-right political parties, because conservative voters unite their votes and because they're more willing to accept mistruths.
Liberal voters don't unite well, and they also tend to have lower trust when it comes to misinformation.
