Nope. In the same way that super super dedicated sports fans who think their team is definitely superior and all others inferior and weak are stupid, and one doesn't need to hate sport to laugh at them, and just as a super religious Christian and a super religious Muslim throwing shit at each other to decide who's desert god can beat up the other are worthy only of being mocked.
I won’t think of vegans any less because of those idiots protesting wild game restaurant. The problem starts when extremist strain keeps the faction hostage, as in “true vegan would _____”.
Movement ability to recognize extremism and cut it out is the number one key success factor.
You cannot build movement around a criminal as BLM does. You cannot change gun laws built around a self-admitted bully and overall horrible human being. You cannot win election by pushing a candidate who conspires to fuck over a decent guy. You cannot make people respect you if you insist people are discriminating for not wanting a girl with a dick. And on and on and on…
Ideology is the difference between modern man and pre-modern man. Without ideology we're just a bunch of serfs following the lord we happened to be born nearest to.
it’s not even about logic at that point, it’s about identity.
funny because it describes centrism much better. le both sides are bad meme doesn't include a careful analysis of the both sides, just triangulating your position from theirs regardless of content
i don’t know much about centrist in depth, but i’m talking about extremist on both sides. people who are committed to their ideas simply because that’s what their party believes. any rational person who believes in their own logic isn’t going to 100% commit to one side. you can still lean right or left, i think everyone does lean one way or the other even if just slightly, but it i really don’t believe people who think for themselves are gonna find that they 100% believe in every concept that would describe their identified party. i believe extremist have identity issues and are looking for a place to belong and to describe themselves.

1 nativelement92 2018-03-28
you don’t have to be a radical centrist to laugh at the extremist on both sides.

both sides are bad galaxy brains*
1 nativelement92 2018-03-28
both sides aren’t bad, but extremist are laughable because their ideas are too fixed and it’s not even about logic at that point, it’s about identity.
1 newcomer_ts 2018-03-28
It wouldn't even be that bad to have extremists.

Nobody died from cancer before ideology existed. Checkmate ideologues.

That lord got his right to rule by virtue of being god's representative on Earth, so they were only propped up by religious ideology.

I was unironically rolling with this pasta-length spiel but there are like three problems with this sentence alone
Is this referring to POTUS, or some kid?
hmmmm

The only political ideas each side has that are even slightly human are the ones that are centrist.

Whats a mayo
1 FratboyGenius 2018-03-28
There are two kinds of white people: there's white people then there's mayos.
1 zenicaone 2018-03-28
there is no white people - its a myth.
1 damocles123 2018-03-28
Whiteness is a transphobic concept.
