Center will gladly consolidate power with right if it conforms with their interests, they more frequently will make coalition with the right before they ever even communicate with the left
Center has and will gladly overlook slavery if it conforms with their interests
Center has always been complicit with overlooking genocide if they ‘don’t have skin in the game’
Center is LITERALLY THE REASON why Hitler was elected, the Weimar Republic was vaguely modern center and STILL VOTED HIM IN
When I wrote that I was internally mapping center to mainstream Democrats.
I think you’re putting that more at like Joe Manchin.
Still… in either case I think you’re out of your mind if you think anyone, except for the very furthest right white nationals, is willing to overlook slavery itself in 2023.
The comparison of “Center” as an abstract thing you’re tying to Hitler honestly comes off as unhinged.
Yes, but also not every issue is that.
Granted, I think center vs left is where meaningful policy conversation is happening… left vs right or center vs right is normally just painful
