Whistleblowers are anti-authoritarian, which is typically a right wing/conservative position in contemporary politics.
To the people downvoting me here: can you list some figures who have been protesting authoritarianism who are left-coded in contemporary American society?
I'm thinking of wikileaks, edward snowden, glenn greenwald. These people have all been "accused" of being right wingers. The people protesting lockdowns, protesting vaccine passports, and protesting any sort of central planning have been on the right. Free speech has become a right wing position which leftists mock (muh freeze peach), gun rights are right wing.
