However, this analogy is a little exaggerated no? The far left would likely be more about making pronouns a human rights issue enough to charge a person for not using it. Middle ground is more to ask why each side believes in what they argue. Then just keep asking why and resolving each underlying issue.

Let's explore that then.
As a middle ground, the question to ask a far right person: why do you want all LGBTQ+ dead?
The question to ask a far left: why do you want a person to go to jail for not calling the preferred pronouns?
At face value, one side still believes that the other should live ( just that they're in jail for it). While the other side wants them all dead. Given this context, the extreme left position is still more reasonable than the extreme right.
Is the middle then that 50% of far right bigots go to jail while 50% of LGBTQ+ are dead? To me, this is still absurd.
