of the same words in a reversed order

Here's why: -- Antimetabole involves the repetition

I read this somewhere, maybe related to someone brain:
On the left there's nothing right, on the right there's nothing left.

In the case of motoring here in the UK:
The right side is the wrong side; the left side is the right side.
Furthermore:
Two wrongs don't make a right but three lefts do.
The phrase "Eat to live, Not live to eat"
is an example of antimetabole.

Antimetabole:
-- Those who can, do. Those who can't, criticize. (George Bernard Shaw)

....or a political situation?
I guess it's like the old Soviet joke:
There's no news in "Truth", and no truth in "News".
*There were two major national newspapers in the USSR:
- "Pravda" [truth], published by the Central Committee of the
Communist Party, largely devoted to party policy
- "Izvestia" [news], published by the Supreme Soviet (government),
mainly foreign news
There's no news in "Truth", and no truth in "News".

Or is it like:
I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy
?

So an odd number of wrongs is correct?
What about 0 wrongs, then?
There's nothing wrong with that.

Ah, right.
I saw what you did there, all right?
I've left room below for another right-on comment.

Always check your pockets twice. You never know what the Left hand stole
from the Right.
