    Centrists: My 3-year old child can tell that both of these characterizations are bullshit. Why cannot you?

      because we tend to be smarter than a 3-year old, i mean, the republicans have openly said that they will abolish democracy in America, but “centrists” seem to think it’s a joke

        This is just an anecdote of course, but I figure myself a centrist and don’t think it was a joke.

          ya, but the difference is that democrats aren’t unveiling “the roadmap to abolish democracy” as a policy guide, and well, actions speak louder than words (unless you are a republican, then you will gladly side with Epstine-McHittler)
