You do understand that I can agree with one idea a person has without endorsing the entirety of their character, or even their entire argument? For the record, centrism is destroying my country.
The branch of our major party which would once have been called ‘hard left’ is now well and truly centrist, almost centre-right or hard-right on some issues such as defense and the right to protest.
Might be healthy to stop believing you have people figured out from one tiny slice of text or one issue that they’ve discussed, or even crazier: read and understand what is being said before you go pointing your political divining rod.
The hilarious(ly depressing) thing is that you could be talking about almost any democracy in the world right now. It’s most famously true in America, but it’s also true here where I live in Australia, it’s true for the UK, we’re increasingly seeing it across mainland Europe.
Yeah it’s a god damn mess. I wonder if the effect has been as crippling to the democratic process in countries where they don’t have systems completely dominated by 2 major parties. Doesn’t leave a lot of room for nuance.
