    I’m not changing the subject, you’re going to bat for a far right commentator. Cry centrism all you want but we all know where he really falls.

    We know where you fall too, with your “BoTh SiDeS” nonsense. Only one side is running a candidate who is parroting the language of Hitler and calling for the elimination of their “vermin” enemies.

    One side regards the other as “less than human,” then claims it’s exactly the same when the other side calls that behavior what it is and expresses that they won’t go down without a fight.

      I am a centrist, but I never said anything about that, so I’m not sure how or why you’re jumping to that. Do you really have to be a centrist to think we should still be decent people? Even if the other side IS bad, taking the high road so you don’t mistakenly stoop to their level is the way to go. You say my views are “nonsense” and use a Spongebob meme to mock them, because they aren’t yours. That’s exactly the kind of thinking that makes me dislike your side. You claim fascism on the other side, while simultaneously being authoritarian and xenophobic in your own way.
