More accurately, I would say these types react to someone criticizing the status quo, which is typically right wing. These types are usually sheltered white guys who have had very few problems with the status quo because, well, they’re white men.
Idk, I’m just voting for the least shitty candidate out of the two and moving on. I don’t get why people care about parties at all and just focus on the issues that need to be solved and how they say they are going to solve it and what their character says about what they most likely are going to mess up.
I don’t take sides but I still want to see big changes that from my point of view would improve things for everyone, splitting giant companies and Foster competition, improving infrastructure to help create jobs, a deep focus on fixing root issues in healthcare instead of just slapping a bandage on it, better affordable internet accessibility for farmers and rural towns, as well as taking steps to preserve the environment for future generations, etc.
I don’t get the hate from all these people, I’m not even in the middle I just care about what I think needs to get done.
The meme isn’t about party, it’s about right and left. The things you want are left wing in the American context.

The fact is, the Republicans are extremely far right and the Democrats do a shit job at delivering for the left because they are funded by wealthy interests. The meme is calling out right wingers that proclaim themselves centrists, not people who are to the left of the Democrats.
The issue is that right now one entire party has become an issue that needs to be solved.
To each its own, this picking sides and fighting thing is counter productive and draws focus from the real issues.
That’s just my stance, abolish all parties and let a man stand on his own merits proving that he will act on the promises he has made to his fellow man.
and the most interesting part of the whole situation is that the other side most likely thinks the same
