“Stop making me choose between far-right and far-left” - “Centrists”

@danwentzel
'Centrists' are just cowards who can't commit till they know who's winning.'Centrists' are reincarnated speedbumps. The assholes.
They come in different flavours. You have your moral cowards, your lazy, your opportunists, your already comfortable (in the uk these are known as "The I'm alright jacks"), your mediocre machivellis and your far-right-if-only-we-could-get-the-far-right-results-without-people-thinking-im-a-bad-persons.
It's important to identify and catalogue their species so you know what treatment works best.

We don’t really have a “far-left” in this country as compared to the rest of the world.
But, if the choice for you between prison camps without due process for hated minorities and universal access to healthcare in the USA is a difficult one, then you already side with the far-right in your moral bankruptcy.
@danwentzel I was just commenting to my spouse last night that I’m shocked by the media calling the Michigan Democratic Senate candidate “far left.” 50 years ago he would have been mainstream Republican. But I’m old. My hope lies with the young folk.

@danwentzel It's completely bonkers - the "coming for your freedom!" far-left never, ever existed in the US, except as a right-wing boogieman, and yet most Americans are more afraid of this complete fabrication than anything fascists could possibly do, including to themselves, and will never cast their vote that way.
Basically, the average American would rather be concentration-camped by jackbooted stormtroopers wearing red, white & black uniform patches than risk reform to the labor market.

Moral bankruptcy indeed, that is what the US are demonstrating nowadays. The by product of neoliberal capitalism since Reagan…

@danwentzel Being upset by the radical left and the radical right equally is a clear sign that one is a radical centrist.
@plantagolabs @danwentzel Ultimately, it turns out that he supports the right.

@danwentzel are you trying to recruit people by blaming them for not being hateful enough for you?

@InspiredByMeAgain @danwentzel

Dan isn't recruiting for MAGA

@spytfyre @danwentzel Also had a friend fall off a cliff on a walking holiday there. Getting the body back was a nightmare for the family. Some hospital tried charging his wife for stuff he obviously didn’t need. You know, he’s dead.

@danwentzel If leftist in your country would wanted a universal healthcare it would happened way before Obama drop is imperfect (but still better than nothing) obamacare. US Democrat party is a capitalist party who cosplay at socialist one.
yes but as el-sayed and mamdani demonstrate, we can take it over
it's the only way forward we have, because of our shitty FPTP voting system
