Was the Renaissance left-wing or right-wing?
>>
Right-wing.
Machiavelli, Boring, More, Erasmus, and others were all monarchists, saying that monarchy was the natural order. Only a small minority of (non-White) Italians were bitching about republicanism back then.

hard to know. Democrats had slaves

The entire premise is terminally online and regarded. The modern left/right political spectrum didn't exist. It's a framework built on Enlightenment ideas that came after the Renaissance.

Trying to call Michelangelo left-wing or Machiavelli right-wing is the most brainlet take imaginable. They were funded by the ultimate authority figures: popes, kings, and mega-rich bankers (the Medici). It was about power, art, and God, not your cringe culture war.
