I've lost track, who's turn is it tomorrow to post that's same 'meme' tomorrow. Gosh it's just so original and fresh the 75th fine seeing another, "if your centrist your basically a Trumper!".
It's okay, buddy, I believe you're not a Trumper.
You're just not a centrist either, because that's not a real thing.
You can support the oligarchal control of the means of production without believing in a specific oligarch's policies. That doesn't make you more left, it's perfectly right wing to believe in human rights. It just means you think exploiting labor is one of those rights, as equally important as the right to self defense and freedom of speech and protest.
And you believe in those, right?
Exploiting labor? You mean two people entering into a contract voluntarily?
Person 1: I will pay you $X to paint my house
Person 2: I accept the terms of this agreement
DragonTypeWyven: isn't there someone else you forgot to ask?
centrism is real, and like schrodingers cat, it's both alive and dead until you look inside the box.
Someone who claims themselves to be a centrist, is often miserable. Someone who claims themselves to be socially progressive, or economically conservative (for example) is often best defined as a "centrist" since they often toe the line, and will in many cases, cross over the line depending on policy, and how they feel that year. These people are more analogous to swing voters more than anything.
Okay. How many socialism points do you need to trade to do a genocide? Is a universal healthcare enough?
i reckon about the equivalent to saving an equivalent amount of lives. If we're doing a barter deal.
Lol, trash.
i mean it makes sense, if we're trying to find out how to karmic balance a genocide with healthcare, it would follow that saving an equivalent number of people would be the natural equivalent.
