Leftists don't believe your position truly exists. Don't confuse this with them disagreeing with you - your stance is as real as the Tooth Fairy.

The left's gods and saints are the government, browns, trannies, faggots, pedos, etc., and (more broadly) the nebulous idea of "the law" - "legal and illegal", not to be confused with "right and wrong".

Remember the [New Guy comic](https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/new-guy) making fun of PewDiePie getting robbed? The artist depicts a very standard sympathetic character - one a saner writer would expect the reader to side with - but this is completely accidental. To the lefty mind, New Guy isn't presenting a valid argument - PewDiePie is bad, so anyone taking his side is an automatically discredited strawman that can be torn down.

This is also why you'll typically see lefty-written villains turn out to be evil "because evil". The strawman might recite true, compelling right-wing arguments about immigration or whatever, but it's then revealed to be all a ruse - he doesn't truly believe any of that nonsense, he's just using this as a way to get suckers to join his cause for his *real* nefarious goal: doing evil because evil (he wants to rule the world, or he enjoys watching suffering, or whatever). You're less likely to see a villain that is intentionally written to have relatable reasons that are simply too extreme for the heroes (the system is corrupt beyond saving, his honour demands he keeps his oath to serve an evil king, etc.) or even something as simple and tragic as happening to fight on the opposite side of a war.

This also means any character that the "wrong" people identify with must be dismantled. Take the Punisher.

Frank Castle was a military veteran whose family were gunned down after witnessing a mob hit - like Batman, the law in the Punisher's world is so corrupt that the honest cops are unable to bring the murderers to justice, so he sets out to "punish" evildoers himself, declaring war on crime with every intention of winning (except unlike Batman he goodifies those that had it coming). For obvious reasons, the Punisher's fight to serve justice (rather than "the law") resonated with a lot of people - including a lot of the *wrong* people.

Lefties can't truly *see* our perspectives, so it's no surprise that [they can't fully comprehend something as simple as the Punisher](https://themasterofverona.typepad.com/the_master_of_verona/2018/04/i-recently-watched-the-punisher-series-on-netflix-i-was-hesitant-going-in-not-because-i-thought-it-would-be-bad-quite-the.html):

> they made the mistake everyone does with the Punisher. They make him heroic. That’s a problem, because the Punisher is not a hero. In fact, he started as a villain [...] I have the Spider-Man comic in which he first appears, duped by another villain called The Jackal to make Spidey his next target. Here, Frank Castle is basically a hitman who murders criminals. Yes, he’s got a tragic backstory. But at no point in that story do we mistake him for a hero. He’s a murderer. It’s just that he murders other murderers.

Apparently, this lefty didn't really read the comic he's proud(?) to own. Even in his own synopsis, the Punisher is only attacking Spider-Man because he was tricked into thinking Spidey is a murderer. Even in this first story, the Punisher makes references to his one-man war on crime - he isn't a hitman for hire or doing it for fun.

The latest Punisher comic run retcons his origins to make him essentially always evil deep down. He's depicted as an unfeeling psychopath. He starts killing criminals as a boy, and he never truly loved his wife and children - the war and the murder of his family are merely convenient excuses to take out his innate murderous impulses with the paper-thin justification of only killing criminals. They even change his iconic logo because the wrong people were using it as a bumper sticker.
