Since many of our debates involve opinions that each side claims to have the correct answer for, I pose the topic title's question.

Commentary:
I think many Righties have trouble differentiating between fact & opinion. In fact,
they use them interchangeably & I don't see Lefties doing that very much.

Sorry, I prefer vanilla.

I guess that makes me a centrist.

True. Righties state as fact that human personhood begins at conception, when scientists and doctors have found no such consensus on the issue. Righties also state as fact that humans are not contributing to climate change when there is no such consensus among scientists.

Heres an example:

Lower taxes equal higher tax revenue.

Is this fact or opinion?

In some specialized cases it can bring in higher revenues. But it is not true in most cases.

When you say that there is no consensus, do you mean that scientists aren't sure one way or another?
