        I’m a centrist, I think about problems and the nuance involved without using identity politics to form my decision.

          Most people are centerists. My thesis is Poli-Sci was centered around the two party system being a downfall for democracy. However saying it’s ignorant to identify is not going to help the situation. At least for now where at least 40 percent give or take are on one end of the extremes.

                  I’m open to carrying a conversation that has freedom rather than backing someone into a corner in what you believe you said. What you said was that calling out the current state of politics as ignorant. I think it’s equally as ignorant to just put blinders on and say it’s a bad idea. I give you the premise that it is in fact a bad idea, but denying it just leads to more problems.

                    Leaning anyway is already an admittance that one must behave a certain way to be considered as apart of, creating a precedence of behavior they feel socially obliged to in a very simplistic give and keep format. Current state politics is ignorant and what makes me form these conclusions and compare them to cults.

          How can you be a centrist when the Republican party is fascist?
