@BohemianBabe See the thing about centrists is we can choose to be absolutist on certain issues and balance on others. Unlike who chose to be absolutists all across the board.

In this instance the Nazis were the bad ones. No compromise there on this issue.

@BohemianBabe When it comes to market regulations vs no regulation there has to be some form of regulation.
@dark548 The "Enlightened Centrist" meme is about people who always choose what is considered the Center, no matter how extreme the Right becomes.

If your politics just happen to be in the actual Center, than you're a Liberal.

@BohemianBabe No because there is stuff I don't agree with liberals like on gun control and unchecked immigration.
@dark548 Liberals generally don't agree with unchecked immigration either.
But anyone who thinks for themselves is going to disagree on a few issues with other people in their political realm. Most Leftists don't think anti-white racism is common, I do.

@BohemianBabe I’ve argued about the center of the political spectrum being considered “left”. If you are n the center, that means you are capable of considering viewpoints that challenge the status quo, and that by definition is “left”.
@trollslayer You could say the Right also challenges the status quo because they're against western values.
