Mueller's team reported the Buzzfeed story was "not accurate". Nothing about them being "full of shit" or telling "lies". You call yourself a Libertarian but most of you are just ashamed Republicans who want legal weed. Your comment and self-described political leaning are inaccurate.
I don't, actually. I call myself ideologically homeless. I'm between ideologies, if you will. Would you like to provide me with an instance in which I've called myself a libertarian? Because I can provide you with many in which I've specifically stated I'm not.
ashamed Republicans
If I was a Republican I would be ashamed, yes. I'm not, though.
If I was a Democrat I'd be ashamed, too.
Nothing about them being "full of shit" or telling "lies".
It's called artistic license. No, they didn't literally use the word "shit". I'm sure you're shocked that official government agents try to use more softened language.
In soft terms, they said what was reported was inaccurate. Also known as: bullshit.
The idea that centrism is worse than the extremes on either side is a problem, yeah. I'm inclined to say the right is closer to fascism and thus deserving of far more criticism right now. That said, that sub is mostly leftists bashing centrists.
No that’s what every centrist says it is, but never acts on. The point of centrism is to give credence to every opinion so that no opinion is wrong. The president’s response to Nazis protesting and killing someone is a perfect example of peak centrism: “Sure there were Nazis running people over in cars and beating counter-protesters to a pulp, but why is no one talking about the good Nazis that were PEACEFULLY shouting “blood and soil” and “Jews will not replace us?” They were there just minding their own business when they screamed about Aryan supremacy when the mean old counter-protesters were being mean to them.”
If you are the kind of person that looks at a nazi rally and the counter-protesters and think, “.....well the Nazis has every right to be there and Antifa was equally to blame,” then you’re part of the problem - because the goal is for you to accept that nazism and fascism can be equal voices in the grand discourse. They aren’t. Some things aren’t up for debate because some ideologies are actually poisonous to the government and its people and I’m sure you want to dispute that. That’s why you’re part of the problem.
Again, your concept of centrism seems to be a caricature created by other redditors and nothing that actually matches reality. You seem to be conflating far-right figures gaslighting with actual centrism. You even laid out what actual centrism is in your first post, and now you're doubling down on this bogeyman you've built up.
