I’m honestly, honestly convinced that the villification of centrism and liberalism on both leftist and right political ideology is designed to increase disagreement and prevent compromise on political issues, likely for people to focus on race or politics over class issues, or to prevent good faith discussion of issues to prevent social progress.

I know, without a doubt this will be voted down, but I’m actually asking you to think about this critically before both political extremes go down the authoritarian route and it becomes too late to actually unify people to rationale and true dialectics.

Dude. This ain’t a meme. It was passable as a shitpost.

Good ole fishhook theory

Is this a satire post?

One characteristic I often hear about fascist states is that voicing opinions against the state will get you punished or possibly disappeared.

My observations is that people in the US are still free to criticize the government however they see fit.

Do you have examples to the contrary, or if not, how to you reconcile this?

This dude again?
