Moderate centrists are just political sports announcers. They stand on the sidelines shouting, "Look! See? They're doing the awful thing! Watch!" but they never actually interfere.
They tell you to protest until you burn out, while your emails and letters go straight to the spam box, and then they promise to fix it "next time" if you just vote for them again — except "next time" never comes.
Watch how they play the game: they try to pass a progressive agenda only when conservatives have full control, making it dead on arrival, and when they have full control, they suddenly pivot to demanding unity, telling us that change and accountability have to wait while crying about how conservatives are stopping them.
Funny how when conservatives are in charge, nobody stops them. It is all just a white-label product with different packaging and the exact same corporate soup inside.
Unity without accountability is just a hostage situation, and I am done falling for it.

Given the choice, Centrists always side with fascists or the right. #LifeLesson You can't trust centrists. Example:
"the leader of the ailing Liberals, Simona Mohamsson, shocked her party last month by abruptly switching positions on SD, announcing that her party would accept being in government with a far-right force she had previously denounced as racist. She also held a press conference alongside Åkesson in which they hugged."

[…] authoritarian liberals who, once in power, consider resorting to force because they know full well that their policies are unpopular; those same authoritarian liberals who want to form an alliance with the far right, who back down because it wants too much, and finally take a gamble on entrusting it with power…"
Johan Chapoutot wrote about Germany in 1932

"People are astonished, people are indignant. People say: "How strange! But, bah! It's Nazism, it'll pass! And people wait, and hope; and people hide the truth to themselves – that it's barbarism, but the supreme barbarism, the one that crowns, the one that sums up the everyday barbarities; that it's Nazism, yes, but that before being its victims, people were its accomplices; that people put up with this Nazism before suffering it, people absolved it, people turned a blind eye to it, people legitimised it, because until then it had only been applied to non-European peoples; that people nurtured this Nazism, people are responsible for it, and that it bubbles, that it pierces, that it drips, before engulfing people in its reddened waters, from all the cracks in the Western and Christian civilisation."
Aimé Césaire in "Discours sur le colonialisme", 1950

The problem I see is that #Centrism seems to have had no answers to #ClimateChange.
And if you've been around while climate change has rolled on across the decades then you're going to have to tell us why you've been ineffective so far.
And how that is going to change now.
So what's been happening #AnneApplebaum and #MalcolmTurnbull?

Why #Centrism Is Morally Indefensible: #TimUrban’s new book, endorsed by the stinking birdsite billionaire, shows how #centrists care more about civility (#MLK's negative #peace) than #justice (positive peace), and hate ‘#socialjustice fundamentalism’ more than #plutocracy.
