if you were a centrist before 2020, and you still are in 2025, then you've moved Right, since the Overton window shifted Right.
if you kept your principles you're now Left. that's how the window works.

MODERATORS
Let's be honest, the Nazis and Tankies align on like 98% of policy. They both support Donald Trump, for example. They both enable ethnostates to send minorities to camps. They believe in a nation ruled by one supreme absolute leader.

lmao what?

Dictatorship of the proletariat doesn't mean total rule by one dude named proletariat, it means total rule by the people.
Tankies support China and the USSR, neither of which have ever practiced rule by the proletariat, and of which the remainder is committing their own little genocide at home.
Weird how they brought a billion farmers out of poverty. I wonder why they would do that if those farmers didn't have any influence.
We certainly don't see that happening in capitalist countries right nextdoor, such as India.
the remainder is committing their own little genocide at home
lol you still believe that? Anybody can literally just go to Xinjiang, there's no travel restrictions. Don't you think they would try to keep foreigners from going there and talking to people if they were committing a genocide?

Tankies want a vanguard of the best brightest to lead and educate the proletariat into a new "socialist" future. Conveniently, the best and brightest happens to be them and their homies.
They also just so happen to have a new vision of socialist utopianism of you working in a sweat shop for 14 hours a day and eating rationed food while they sip fine wines and write bullshit very online mutants will recite as scripture in the future.

I'm too uneducated on politics (read: stupid) to even know what left and right means. Where do I land

The enlightened centrism is strong in this one. No, the US don't have a conflict of left vs. right. The conflict is between the right and everyone else. And most of the right are just rubes who think they being part of some kind of movement but in reality are just being fleeced by a bunch of grifters
I'd say the curve it's much flatter on the left side. As in right side is shouting tankie, meanwhile there are like 2 tankies and the right wants to set the whole barn on fire to get them both.
Perfect example of this was Jimmy Kimmel. He openly said that shooting a commentator was a horrible thing, and tried to call for moderation. MAGA declared that wasn’t enough, and ordered him fired.
They have specified that if you’re not with them, you’re against them.
Kimmel got fired for pointing the spotlight back at Trump and Epstein. Had nothing to do with Kirk.

Uh... fucking cope hard. The Nazis won't care about your enlightened centrism when they arrest you for being brown and/or the wrong kind of white.
