I am no MAGA TRUMP LOVE type supporter. I try to be a centrist, a proper one with proper devil’s advocation. That being said, even r/centrist over there is very obviously on the left.

I made 1 comment ever on r/trump which I am not even subbed to…

Here is them muting me for my shocked reply:

    So much for the “social” in social media. I made a silly quip too, not even anything supporting Trump. Hell I voted Gabbard last election like… I cant even partake in some subs? That’s insane.

      Your comment doesn’t seem very centrist, but that’s neither here-nor-there. How did you perceive this as “Kill all others”?

        Silencing people who disagree with your side of the spectrum is a kill-all-others mentality. It is a slippery slope, and is authoritarian.

          That is an extreme perspective to say the least. And freedom of speech has nothing to do with it. You said and I quote "I hope you don’t feel like you’re on the ‘correct’ side of the political spectrum. If you are a centrist, there is no ‘correct’ side. And the only real context to the statement is what you explained and what you said. There’s always 3 sides to a story; your truth, their truth, and the truth. We have observed your truth, so what’s their truth? IMO, that’s what centrism is

          And I will give you the benefit-of-the-doubt that I took your comment out of context, but based off of what I have right now, that’s my view
