  1. A surprised looking person pops in to existence on a floating rock surrounded by fire, next to the devil.

  2. The person asks “wait a second-- why’d I end up in hell??”

  3. The devil, now taking up the entire frame, replies: “because centrism enables fascism”

    The reason many people think centrists are just conservatives in disguise, is because the “centrists” most people see online aren’t actually centrists. They’re only slightly left of the extreme right, and think there’s a middle-ground compromise somewhere between “we want all these people dead” and “nobody should die.”

      I think that just shows lack of imagination. I may be a centrist: want a free palestinian state, support the ukranian government, and belive that renewables are not sustainable economically, and be against imigration (I am european, these are not necessarily my opinions, just an example). You can either alienate me or convince me.
