If there is a fascist party, ideology, or values in a state. And you choose to be ‘centrist’, then you are by definition a fascist yourself. You are siding with the oppressor by not siding with the oppressed. I’ll put it to you this way: Think of all the ‘centrist’ Germans in Nazi Germany who just ignored their neighbors being abducted and sent to concentration camps. Are they not also fascist for enabling that system, instead of fighting against it?

Now, think about modern American politics. Think about what is deemed far left, and what is deemed far right. What is the far left doing, and what is the far right doing. By ignoring what the far right is doing, are you not complacent? There is no such thing as true centrism. Everyone is forcefully involved in politics. What centrists really mean is that they don’t want to get involved or speak up.

I see your point but you don’t have to respond to me like I am a centrist or someone remotely ok with the t-right. Sometimes people have genuine questions and you don’t have to treat them like they’re stupid for asking.

+ As someone who already identifies as politically left this whole “if you don’t already know/agree with me immediately you’re stupid” attitude is something I really wish we’d collectively do away with
