Are you under the impression that I'm a centrist? Because I was under the impression you were.
Maybe I should just make this statement instead of trying to reply to this several layers deep context.
If a person says "Absolutes are a problem" but also says "except this Absolute, right here, this one is OK" - then that person doesn't actually think absolutes are a problem. That person thinks absolutes they disagree with are a problem.
Personally, I would not say absolutes are absolutely a problem. If we could agree on a few absolutes (such as "The KKK is bad" or "White supremacy should be rooted out and not tolerated" or "You can't call and threaten or beg people to take illegal action when you don't like the results of an election") I think maybe we'd have a bit more unity in the country.
At this point I guess I've lost the plot of whether I agree with you or not, but I think I don't, and my position is as outlined above. I also agree with the meme that is OP.
You are just rambling and I'm not listening.
Sorry for the off-topic reply, thought you were a different thread. But also, LOL, OK.
