t. anti-centrists

The reverse ethnostate will purge you all. Including me.

@caocao, I never said that centrism had its own doctrine, I just said it's preferable to everything else.

Centrism exists, it's just poorly named. You don't have to pick between all left and all right in your thoughts and actions, and what people call centrism is just taking some aspects of both sides and making a new ideology from it. Like how some parts of the American and Canadian constitutions have freedom, and some have order. They're complete opposites, on specific notes you have to pick one, but in the entire law system you can find both in certain areas. Freedom in you can buy what you want, and sell and give what you want, but order in you can't steal without punishment.

Daily reminder that people that shit on centrism are either trying to get clout, or support extremism, (they jack off to the idea of revolution). Or they are simply stupid. Or maybe just a combination of the three.

Where did you get the evidence from?

Extremism is a very loose term, you haven't defined it at all

I simply just believe that in order to be truly free, this voting system should not exist, as it is a tool use to oppress
But I know it is the best system we have

Your whole ideas are unfounded and I'm not surprised, I don't expect more from a descendant of Chunkyland

Whatever centrist belief you have, it is simply a watered down belief from a polar view, you are still polarized
10 chocolates
0 chocolates

How many chocolates would be considered "centrist" here?

Cacao, Correct me if I'm wrong, but what I'm getting here is according to you, you have to choose between one or one other in all things, like ten chocolates or no chocolates, and you can't pick anything that no one else agrees with or anything that is neither all nor nothing, like say three chocolates or five chocolates or one. That seems to me like total bullshit, considering most people actually don't go all or nothing, like three or five chocolates.

That's exactly what I'm saying

Reaching to the conclusion to 3 chocolates requires a compromise
There is a reason you don't eat more, you will get fat, too sweet, etc
There is a reason you don't eat less, you love the taste, etc

Like what you would call a "centrist" policy is a product of polar views coming to a compromise
One with a "watered down" view are not strong enough reach a compromise

"Centrists" don't realize that "centrist" policies are a compromise between polar views

This is hard to explain with text than it is to speak about it

This is all assuming the political spectrum is binary. You keep bugging me about objectivity when I'm clearly giving a half-assed expression of my views. In that case, what proof is there that the political spectrum is binary? Nazbol and Anarcho-Monarchism exist unironically.

Politics are binary you twat

There are two main dynamics in politics
1. Structure and concentration of power: Dictator, Different kinds of Federalism, Monarchy,
2. Economy, Social, etc policies

Subdynamics would be how you elect them to power, which is where democracy, inheritance come along

For this case we are only talking about Economy, Social, etc policies

There is no party trying to change the structure or concentration power, these things tend to only happen when there's a revolution
Which is how you get Dictators, and Kings back then

You can have a dictatorship and a democracy, it is not a contradiction
Nazbol are "radical" nationalism and bolshevism, not a contradiction, these are social and economic policies
Anarcho-monarchism is a contradiction, as you can't have 2 kinds of power structures, you can't have no on in power, and one person in power at the same time

Also Anarcho-monarchism is a meme, it's not real

An example of Economical Policies being "centrist"
Capitalism vs Communism
This can be measured by the percentage of income tax you pay, the closer you get to 100% the more communist
You can't be capitalist and communist at the same time, there is a road in between though
Socialism, Socialism is a form of communism,
Capitalists push towards 0 income tax, less government control over "means of production"
Communists push towards 100 income tax, and more government control
Socialists push towards a certain income tax, and certain government control
A centrist belief might be only taxing the necessary income to maintain military, etc...
But this "centrist" belief isn't centrist, it's still socialist, it's a compromise
It's not full blown communism, and it's not the ideal capitalist dream

Centrism is the status quo of the one who last won the power struggle. Centrists in the 1970s USSR were highly different fron the ones in the 1930s as were they from the UK centrists of both the two different time periods.

Left wing and right wing change too. Right wing used to be pro monarchy and pro imperialism, left wing used to be revolutionary, in favor of enlightenment ideals. TO know what they represent now, just look at the media.

In a binary system, there is no inbetween. Male or female (biologically) 1 or 0 (except for quantum computers). Retarded or not retarded

You cannot have the principles of your binary system to be variables. Plus you can't just group economics and sociology just because you want to be right. There are more than two variables and more than two fundamentals.

Politics is not binary you idiot.

You obviously don't know don't what binary means

You are using computer and biological terminology to talk about politics
This is like saying you can't have gray because only black and white exists, and gray is only created when you mix black and white
Which is my point

Politics is a social construct, which allows for the color gray to be created

Politics do not just allow black, white and grey, but also every other colour you can imagine.
The Problem is, that People are stupid and tend to think black/white.

A Spectrum is a binary you twat

It's all a matter of wavelength

It may look a different color, but the universe doesn't see color
All it is, is light at different wavelength
Longer wave length vs shorter wavelength
AKA polar opposites aka binary
