Truly the words of an enlightened centrist.

IMO though, left and right have (to be concise) lost all meaning, especially in colloquial usage. Best to use more specific labels rather than umbrella terms.

But you can apply that same logic to the left wing. A bird doesnt fly unless both wings work together.

Ive noticed you take a very strong approach to your political views and thats fine. It just comes across as being very.... grounded in your own mindset. By that I mean youre unwillingness to even hear the other side. Like, you seem to think we all need to pick a side, YOUR SIDE, and those who dont are well you said it yourself

I should note that I make a distinction between the concepts of "enlightened centrists", moderates/moderatism, radical centrism, and centrism.

"Enlightened Centrists" are basically just nihilists. They might have decent criticism of "both sides" but propose no meaningful solutions, and when they do, it tends to lean in a certain direction but they're too proud to admit it.

Moderates believe and seek a perfect middle ground on issues.

Radical Centrism is basically the overton window, enforced by the proverbial cathedral to establish what is to be considered "normal," so that anything falling outside of it is deemed unthinkable.

And finally, Centrism is effectively pragmatism, picking the best proposals regardless of whether they're "left" or "right."

It only seems to be folks on the left that are triggered by centrists for some reason. I feel it's simple-minded, comic book thinking where everyone needs to either be the "good guys" or the "villains."

You didnt call it by that name, but the post you got warned for was about people of color being shipped into Europe to replace white people. Shut the fuck up.
