I think the cross-purposes we're at here is that I'm thinking of political views - not the people that hold them.
Right-leaning people will be realistic, and tell the truth, about all sorts of things - including perhaps the minority status of disabled people - but not, generally, about.politics, since their belief that authority trumps reason and evidence leads them away from honestly engaging with reality.
For example, in most European countries there was no strong political division over covid masks or vaccinations, but in the US these did become politicised - leading many right-leaning people to behave irrationally.
