What is the Right and Left side in politics?

What do the terms "left" and "right" mean in the context of politics? Which political parties are typically associated with the left and the right? I would appreciate any clarification or insights on this topic. Thank you!

Typically, the left is associated with Democrats and the right is associated with Republicans. However, left and right actually refer to whether or not you are a conservative (right) or liberal (left) in the context of U.S. politics. Therefore, you can be a “leftist” Republican or a “rightist” Democrat depending on your specific political and social ideals.

Quincy S has the gist of it, Republicans tend to be Conservative, while Democrats tend to be Liberal, but that is not always the case. There are Liberal Republicans and Conservative Democrats. Conservative is the “Right Wing” and Liberal is the “Left Wing”, with varying degrees of both.

There should only be one person for the people not divided up into parties who oppose each other. I have never been fond of politics.

Right is religious fanatics, that feel they need to save your soul by taking over the government, and having it persecute all unbelievers.

The left, is anyone that doesn’t have such extreme beliefs.
