Left wingers are retarded because they don't read enough history
Right wingers are retarded, because they read a bit more history, but misunderstand it and cherrypick parts of it, just to make up shit
But besides few differences, they happen to justify certain immoral and hypocritical actions with the side they're in, without having a single clue of self-awareness
They want to live in a black and white scenario, where "I'm the good guy, are you're evil", just to deny reality
Centrists, however, look up at the flaws of both sides, both similar and different, and attempt to avoid that, for better behaviours, that have a butter fit with the human race
And both sides try to shit on centrists, without understanding that they are the reason why centrists exist in the first place
So if human beings are meant to be the smartest animal, why would you limit the potential of your species' intelligence and behaviour
Isn't centrism basically the key to proper rationality?

today's center is last decade's leftism. (at least in the west)
An average western coutry's center is our far left.
Centrism is always in context of what's currently on the left and right respectively. So its not even a coherent set of ideas
Your whole argument is retarded
>Implying that killing babies is bad
>le based too intelligent centrist
Discarded.
There should be no gun control. You are literally Stalin for wanting to freely sign away our right for literally no gain.
Centrism in the streets, absolutism in the sheets
That's the road to enlightenment
Yeah, be a little less vague next time you start a thread.
>FUCK STRONG OPINIONS
It really depends on what you mean by centrism.
>MUH RADICAL CENTRISM
centrists need a new name becauae any time anybody hears "centrist"their retarded brain thinks "fencesitter" or something equally as wrong. just call yourselves pragmatists
>pragmatists
Why not just "vaginas"?
>LET'S KILL ONLY HALF OF THE BABY
>t. CENTRIST
why not call them "reasonable people who are open to any good solution no matter where it originates from" and then just lump everyone else into "low information ideological retards who use solely use their emotions for decision making"
>moderate gun control is good
SHALL
TL;DR: Why modern "centrists" like you think they're smart when they're actually wrong in 100% of all cases.
Because they are not reasonable people. They are idiots. An ideology is a set of belief. By rejecting claims of ideology you are claiming that you believe in nothing and anyone that believes in something looks down on you for it.
What is the difference between the two examples? Both gun control and feeding babies into a woodchipper are bad. Doing a moderate amount of either is moderately bad.
>Every citizen should have the right to own a nuclear warhead
Every citizen HAS the right to own a nuclear warhead.
Not "Should have"
They indeed already do have that right.
And you with your little pink dress and your polka-dot panties need daddy government to infringe on the rights of others so you feel safe to have your queer little tea parties.
That's fine, just admit that is the case. Rather than trying to imply that people don't have basic human rights as part of being alive.
Problem is that generally you are unprincipled if your only guiding light is "We should try to placate as many people as possible."
Sup Forums only exists because of cognitive dissonance, centrist policy basically shatters this and it's too much for the average Sup Forums user so they just reject it.
Feed only nigger babies into woodchippers #proudcentrist
What's the point in you, man?
Centrism is someone who is not informed and does not like confrontation so takes the "reasonable middle" position which can easily be swayed by one or another side becoming more radical.
Radical Centrism is the most red pilled ideology. Only sub-human retards disagree.
Golden mean fallacy, faggot.
A position is not automatically better just for being moderate.
Sometimes people are just completely incorrect and meeting them halfway is a bad idea.
For instance, when the far left pushes communism and the right pushes democracy The moderate position is to adopt some socialist policy.
Its not as bad as communism, but its still a bad idea
>a moderate amount of gun control
that would be ok if 'moderate' was an absolute term. but 'moderate' amount of gun control to some people means shotguns and hunting rifles only.
>having an opinion that considers both opposing points is uninformed
>following propaganda is informed
sad that this is the common mentality of Sup Forums posters now
Isn't centrism just basically towing the status quo?
Its retarded.
You're basically forming your opinion based on what other people think.
Beta as fuck and opens you up to jew magic. they love to use polarization.
Pretending to have an opinion that considers both sides so you can have an easy out and feel superior. That's centrism in America, centrists have no principles and will slowly go where ever the loudest radicals take them.
As a center nationalist, fuck your chart. Centrism doesn't mean having some kind of middle ground opinion.
>centrism is what I say it is
nice strawman, it must be comforting to define the position you're arguing against when you can't actually make an argument.
This is a perfect example of how Sup Forums rationalizes things they don't understand to avoid applying critical thinking, cognitive dissonance is as strong as ever.
Look brainlet, I know you are only capable of thinking one thing, but others can see more than one side of an issue without pretending.
At least moral absolutists stand by an idea and are consistent, instead of literally being normies and getting as low as people around them allow them to.
name one good liberal idea
>centrist here
Next thread
What does it mean?
>Butter feet
Only those who believe in nothing could think that moral relativism could exist.
Centrism is not being moderate in everything, it's just rationalizing each problem.
>guys my solution is the best because i fetishize 'compromise'.
centrists are easily manipulated retards who have no opinion of their own.
>Dat flag
It's good the mentally handicapped are given a voice here.
>it's just rationalizing each problem.
and why would that put you in the center?
the left is bad on everything
HORSE-SHOE THEORY IS COMPLETELY ACCURATE IF YOU SWAP THE "CENTRE" AND THE "FAR RIGHT" OVER
>Lets hear from the most intelligent and experienced medical experts on this subject before making a pragmatic informed decision rather than basing our choice on emotions and regardless of left/right "my side" fallacy.
That's centrism.
There is literally no difference between the top and bottom ones. Both cases satisfy nobody but the centrists and you get nowhere with either.
>the left is bad on everything
how does it feel to be this fucking brainwashed that you think one side of a political spectrum is nothing but evil overlords and retards?
Your idea of centrism is give me some of your guns now so you wont feel so bad when I take the rest later. No, you are not taking our guns. Period.
>The left is bad on everything.
I can guess from that one sentence alone alot of things about you. none of them positive.
What are they good on?
>1 post by this ID
sick bait, man
Centrism is about taking the middle ground not seeing more than one side. I'm talking how centrism really is and you are talking how you theoretically think it should be.
>the left is bad on everything
Jesus christ that mental retardation
do guntards have any other argument aside from slippery slope?
Every single supporter of the confederacy is a traitor to the United States. You shouldn't even have the right to own guns. Lincoln was too soft in his "abridgement" approach. He should have strung up the generals.
keeping the right from turning this country into a fundamentalist christian circus
>aside from slippery slope?
Do you understand what legal precedent is?
Kek, it's true
Abortion is murder and murder is wrong, but doing wrong things is human and my moral qualms won't stop people from doing it. Lock up the abortion doctors, maybe, do I really even care that much?
How would this be a bad thing?
Millions dying under the "slippery slope" of tyranny is good enough for anyone with half a brain. Since Lefties love killing the unborn, do you think they would stop at full grown adults if they had the chance?
It depends what country you're in. The concept of leftism/rightism is a fallacy and can't be taken as an absolute.
In some cultures like the west we use it to mean "socially and fiscally liberal/conservative." But that gets complicated when you have libertarian parties and PPP parties and Right wing parties Vs other right wing parties etc.
TLDR. Don't just assume everything "left is bad." The term left wing and right wing is nearly meaningless and mostly used to push agendas eg. "right-wing supremacy, left-wing dictatorship."
Examine issues yourself and use critical thinking.
nice fake news retard holodomor never happened
Centrist is code word for I have no idea what the fuck is going on, and I'm too lazy to research it so i'll stand here in the background and pretend I'm smart,
Incrementalism isn't a slippery slope argument when it's specifically stated to be a means to an end.
Lefty Jap: Elves are people therefore rape it
Righty Jap: Elves aren't people therefore rape it
Centrist Jap: Elves are 3/5 a person therefore rape it
it would be a bad thing for people who aren't christian. stop being edgy.
Or maybe Skeptics would be better.
Centrism is nothing else but a fancier word for someone who wants to preseve the status quo, i.e. the current status. If you're happy with the world as it is, you're a centrist, if you want to return to old times you're a rightist, and if you want an unprecedented order you're a leftist.
>Right wingers are retarded, because they read a bit more history, but misunderstand it and cherrypick parts of it, just to make up shit
Wew lad, you might be retarded.
So you assume that anything in the center of the debate is automatically right, nothing black and white about that at all, you're a really smart guy.
My brother, it's like you read my thoughts. We need more of us to call to action to stomp out these idealougues that are ruining our country .
But people who aren't christian are bad people. And I mean that as in "if you don't live by the fundamental principles that Jesus taught, you are a bad person"
Uhhh no. Just no. Wrong on all accounts. Sorry, but atleast you're trying to use that noodle which is more than what most idealougues do.
Fuck the blind .
I like how you addressed his argument without simply just saying "you're wrong". You're the total opposite of an ideologue user.
>By rejecting claims of ideology you are claiming that you believe in nothing and anyone that believes in something looks down on you for it.
No, we just understand how the world works. It's not a black and white world. It's more complex than that and we are ok with that. Ideologues try to simplify the world in to black and white parts so their feeble and fragile egos can exist on some kind of level.
You misunderstand centrists. I guess that's why you fell for the ideological bullshit. It's easier to understand.
Not an argument. Get the fence post out of your ass and stand for something. Reality is absolute, learn to deal with it.
>What's the point in you, man?
Lol, you don't get it. Awww, poor little snowflake idealougues can't reason .
No.
Even complexities are black and white. Not being able to grasp them isn't the same as lacking judgement.
>, centrists have no principles and will slowly go where ever the loudest radicals take them.
That's thing with centrists. They don't follow and that's why they are not ideologues. They make up their own rules and seek out new information and data.
Inalienable rights
Zing!
>centrists are easily manipulated retards who have no opinion of their own
So Trump.
Centrism is relative to the Overton window. Moderate gun control in England and moderate gun control are totally different. This op is retarded and a total faggot. The only way to remain free is to remain staunchly right
Exactly
Centrism, and neocuckservatism as well, is just fabian socialism.
Found the idiot that claims to love the 2nd amendment but flies a flag that wanted to destroy the Constitution.
>And I mean that as in
ok so what you mean is 'moral' people. all 'moral' people aren't christians, and some christians aren't 'moral' people.
inb4 you say 'not true christians'
Fucking retarded.
I have nothing to add I just want to see what the kekistani flag looks like
what you don't understand is that the modern (((right))) is in the green on this chart
Centrists have no principles.
Do you know what the NAP is? Do you believe in self-ownership?
That's also appeal to authority
No because the centre keeps shifting Leftwards
...
>you assume that anything in the center of the debate is automatically right,
Nice assumption . Idiot..
why are the SJW's on Sup Forums this obsessed with gun control? what's the point?
if you examine it in a truly objective manner you must acknowledge that the people most likely to comply with new gun laws are also the least likely people to commit gun crimes.
you punish law abiding citizens, plain and simple
That's what he's saying, and also what his pic is implying.
