Check out c/breadtube for more left video content and discussion.
Am I the only one who has lately been more irritated by milquetoast centrists than by the extremes? Centrism is an inherently lazy worldview that masquerades as well meaning reasonability. Far from it. You want nazis? Cuz that’s how you get nazis.
Centrists are neither left nor left.
thumbnail makes it look, as if centrists were on the side of the far left :/ didn’t watch the video yet tho, so maybe it makes more sense in context ^^
I haven’t watched it yet either. But from looking at it I would assume is making a point about, how when you look at it. In terms of distances in 2d space. And not distances along an arbitrary curve. The far right and centrists are closer to each other. Which in the US is definitely the case. Especially considering our far left is solidly economically right wing.
The problem is that so called centrists aren’t ideologically centrist. But reactionarily centrist. They don’t have a guiding belief or principle beyond finding and occupying any imagined center they can. Even where no center exists.
Thumbnail shows two things:
- centrists are leftist
- far left is more radical than far right
Haha it’s all two sides of the same coin. The only answer is to abolish it all. ANARCHY! ANARCHY! I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT IT MEANS, BUT I LOVE IT!
