LWDT VI: Kropotkin's Bread Dead Redemption.

[Torrocca]

I might run another poll in the next few days after this one in regards to right-wing politics since they're semi-relevant to leftist politics.

Why not just ignore them? Maybe they will go away? Perhaps not. Anyway, this is the left-wing discussion thread, not the right-wing discussion thread.

I don't have any intention of talking about the merits of right-wing thought, just as a heads-up.

[The South Falls]

Well, fortunately right-wing positions were not included. As far as I am concerned, good riddance.

I, too, support getting rid of the right wing wreckers.

Well, that's our guy.

[Senator Huey Long]

It's tough being a centrist. The far-left hates you, the liberal left hates you, the serious right-wing hates you and the memetic right-wing is absolute cancer.

Because we know that sitting on the fence to create a facade of a moral high-ground is stupid :^)

Evil can't withstand being ignored. Anyway, you are the OP of the thread, not me.

How is it tougher than anything else? Everyone hates everyone.

Uh-huh. Being a centrist doesn't mean you're a filthy fence-sitter, it just means you don't tend towards the extremes of the left and the right. I know it's hard to understand, but sometimes solutions can be found without resorting to the extremes of socialism or fascism.

Tariq Ali also has some choice words for centrists in this book.

[Senator Huey Long]

That's easy. Centrists rarely have the same tight-knit communities that other groups on the spectrum have.

As we all know, the enlightened solution between the moral conundrum of gassing all the Jews and gassing none of the Jews is to let the Nazis gas half the Jews. *nod*

Didn't realize you were a country yokel, building that big of a strawman.

Nah, I just hate the status-quo peddling. :^)

Eh, I'm kind of centrist.

Well, sliding more right but I'm good with centrists.

Who needs a community based on political ideology though.

I disagree. I think fence-sitting is an apt term for centrism. Then again, I am a self-described left extremist.

A nice, wholesome, fabulous community :3

"Wholesome"

[Senator Huey Long]

Nah, I just hate the status-quo peddling. :^)

Yeah, I can already imagine it. Chewing a fine corn pipe, stuffing that strawman fit to burst.

While it's true that centrists don't want to destroy the system and replace it with socialism or fascism, that doesn't mean centrists are just sitting on their asses and doing nothing. Social democrats are centrists, but they tend to push forward policies that help the working man and encourage equality without tearing things down.

The new R A I N B O W coloring I've added to this thread has definitely made it a much more wholesome community :3

Social Democrats are on the left-wing side of things, which is inherently non-centrist. :^)

I guess if you support a massive change in society, any smaller changes seem very small, if anything at all.

[Democratic Communist Federation]

There are no merits of right-wing thought.

There are no merits of right-wing thought.

And I'm sure you block anyone who tries to convince you otherwise, just to be sure.

It made it more fabulous, but not wholesome.
This thread is not conductive to promoting moral well-being. But morals are just spooks anyways.
