In many cases, if conservatives loudly accuse liberals of some bad or extreme act, it's because the conservatives are trying to deflect attention from their doing the same thing worse.

also falls into unpleasant excesses (which caused Trump's election).
As usual, it is a pendulum of unpleasant excesses.
