    A centrist is a divorced dad or republican that wants to get laid

      oh fuck. it’s an actual theory and not a meme

      nevermind, the article itself calls it satire.

    From my experience, I find the far left and the far right have more similarities.

    Based on the image, doesn’t this imply that the far right is less right than the moderate right?

    Centrists enable the far-right, because the far-right phrases their repulsive behavior in terms of the status quo or the restoration thereof, and theatrically so.

    Centrists are reeds in the wind that the far-right has learned to play, but that the far-left thinks that just a little more Righteous Policy will FINALLY win over.
