  • I wouldn’t call that centerist because you’re not claiming to be in the middle on any issues. Too many of these “ideas from both sides” are at complete contradiction to each other. One of the parties is overtly racist and says diversity is bad. Being a racist pro-choicer doesn’t make you a centerist.

    Also about news bias, it should be the default to be least biased in my opinion. The news should be boring and should just tell you what happened without telling you how you should feel about it.

    Yeah would be great. That sort of reporting died a long time ago.


  • There is no political center between the current left and right parties in the United States. For example, one is pro-choice the other is pro-life. There is no middle on that issue. This is the post-truth world and we are now in different realities. You can’t believe half of the Q stuff and then believe half of the Bernie stuff. If you don’t follow politics enough to have an opinion you wouldn’t call yourself a centerist.

    Describing yourself as a “centerist” in today’s conditions usually means you support Trump but are too embarrassed to say it out loud/you know you’ll receive backlash for saying it.
