That could be true, but the pressure against the bars in the opposite direction that you're turning must be maintained or the bike will straighten up. The direction that the wheel is turned is irrelevant. I was taught to look ahead at where I want the bike to go, not look at the front tire. As far as I'm concerned, pushing continuously on the right side to turn right is still is counter steering.
