Yes they do, that's freedom of speech ole chum. And you're free to ignore them. You're free to say what you want but you're not free of the consequences of your speech; if one of those consequences is that people think you're a bumbum living a bumbum life, and treat you accordingly, well that's just life I'm afraid.
You seem very fixated on left vs right. What do you want from life? A fair go, right? You want to be paid fairly for the work you do, and have the opportunity to rent or buy housing that doesn't leave you with no disposable income? You want to be treated with respect?
Many of us whether on the left or the right want exactly the same thing. Many on the right have been gaslit into thinking a) they don't want the above b) the 'left' are their enemy. We're all just people, and most of us want the same things, when you dig down. Respect, fair pay, housing that doesn't leave us destitute. It shouldn't be a big ask imo.
