    The centrists has their basic needs met and isn’t part of a social group that is threatened so they see both as a waste of tax spending.

      “If we just improve the education system, racism will go away.” - My centrist friend

      Bro, no. Also, who the fuck do you think is trying to fund education? Assuming we even accept your premise.

        Education does help, or the right wouldn’t be trying to gut it so hard. But it’s not all we need

    It says something, that securing people’s basic needs is considered “far” left.

    Maybe I’m the centrist in this scenario, but isn’t that just normal left? I’d expect far left to be like “we are going to exterminate all the rich then give their stuff to everyone else”

      In the US at least, the entire country is so far right that the position above is actually far left in our political sphere.

    The answer is always in the middle. Let’s do a little basic needs but only for the rich and a little genocide but only in the middle east

      USA has a left. They almost never win at the ballot box, though. You have to find them in the streets.
