With respect - this means nothing. Governments use sedition as the generic charge of last resort. Look at China. Folks who are not revolutionary - merely principled - run afoul of sedition charges.

I was not talking ideology - but individuals. I'm not arguing for some kind of unifying trait. But surely you'll allow me that Republicans (people, not a class) as well as Democrats are capable of working soup kitchens or putting in time as volunteer tutors.
