Current Events > are centrists really equivocating between the neonazis and antifa/BLM?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I only see very far right-wingers doing it, like those who were vocally in support of Ted Cruz or Donald Trump

but every time it comes up on social media there are a bunch of lefties that expound on how centrists and liberals are being used as rubes by the alt-right since they are pretending the two sides are the same

only like I said that is something that even most people on the right dont seem to be saying so idgi

am I off base here?

i think it's less centrists and more low-information voters who are being duped by the huge amount of disinformation
---

Centrists and liberals are the same political group.

What is your question here.
---

Centrists are pulling the "both sides" shit, because that's their only card.
---

The real answer is that these new "centrists" are the people who don't like the new neo nazis but for some reason feel threatened by the emergence of pro-black, pro-minority groups

maybe it's self-selection since there was a prominent mis-ID here in Arkansas, but even then the worst I've really seen are people denouncing the doxxing. but even then it's right wingers, and they are emphasizing that innocent people have been doxxed

well i mean when white supremacy is viewed as normal, people marching alongside them certainly do seem to be 'innocent'

idk how much of this same thing both sides bs is being done over this specific issue

given the GOP is criticizing trump now i can't imagine there's a lot of it

It's only a group of right-wingers trying to do damage control.

I mean someone was identified as being at the march, who wasn't at the march

i have.

I've seen some far left people claiming that the DNC made up the term "alt-left", which "gives Trump ammunition".

But I haven't seen anyone besides the right actually equating both sides.

Who cares, they're probably guilty anyway

Nope, just certain Trump garglers.

Some of us don't associate with any of those groups.

Some of us also notice that stupid shit follows shortly behind the KKK, BLM, Neonazis, and Antifa.

Some of us are tired of reading about the social experiment that is the equivalent of putting a spider and wasp together in a jar.

Those are just some of my personal reasons why I view them all the same. They all suck horrendous amounts of ass and I don't really care about how much they differ in their ass sucking.
