He didn’t think he was making fun of the Left. His intent was to make knuckle dragging right wing characters that spouted oafish things, so the audience would mock them. Lear was horrified when the public loved Archie Bunker. It was exactly the opposite of what he hoped for. Lear despised the stereotypical American man.
