It all eventually comes down to left or right

2018-07-29 17:50:55 UTC  

I call myself a centrist

2018-07-29 17:51:13 UTC  

I like centrists because they enrage leftists

2018-07-29 17:51:49 UTC  

I see a lot of Repubs label themselves as centrists to get votes in mock election servers lol

2018-07-29 17:52:22 UTC  

Or "left-leaning" centrists, even though there is no such thing as a left leaning centrist

2018-07-29 17:52:41 UTC  

yes there is

2018-07-29 17:52:55 UTC  

Well then you're not a centrist

2018-07-29 17:53:08 UTC  

I think that's the reason a lot of big YouTube political commentators are people who call themselves liberal but hate the left

2018-07-29 17:53:14 UTC  

@Big Mach Welcome

2018-07-29 17:53:33 UTC  

It helps a lot of people from the left accept their ideas without too much cognitive dissonance

2018-07-29 17:53:33 UTC  

@PanickedPaladin Oh yeah for sure

2018-07-29 17:53:51 UTC  

It's like the equivalent of "not into politics"

2018-07-29 17:53:56 UTC  

like you don't want to offend anybody

2018-07-29 17:54:19 UTC  

I seriously have beliefs from both sides

2018-07-29 17:54:29 UTC  

almost equally

2018-07-29 17:54:38 UTC  

even though, deep inside, you know you're either left or right

2018-07-29 17:55:07 UTC  

@LOTR_1 What like low tax and pro choice?

2018-07-29 17:55:21 UTC  

other way around, kind of

2018-07-29 17:55:29 UTC  

High tax and pro life?

2018-07-29 17:55:47 UTC  

who wants high tax

2018-07-29 17:55:48 UTC  

lol

2018-07-29 17:55:50 UTC  

ikr lmao

2018-07-29 17:55:52 UTC  

Leftists

2018-07-29 17:56:04 UTC  

no tax on low income and low middle class, high tax on the top one percent. and I'm prolife

2018-07-29 17:56:45 UTC  

I mean, most issues won't fit directly into *any* one box

2018-07-29 17:57:05 UTC  

You know I saw a socialist professor on the Tucker Show that wanted to tax the 1% like 80% tax lol

2018-07-29 17:57:32 UTC  

that's insane

2018-07-29 17:58:17 UTC  

25% tax is already pretty bad, it sucks for everybody

2018-07-29 17:59:02 UTC  

@LOTR_1 What happens when the rich run out of money

2018-07-29 17:59:20 UTC  

I'd say 30% on the top one percent is reasonable. And the rich are not going to run out of money lmfao

2018-07-29 17:59:22 UTC  

Everyone should be taxed the same rate, that is a low rate.

2018-07-29 17:59:25 UTC  

I think one of my deeper red-pill moments was hearing a Democrat talk about how they wish the government would tax them more, as long as they got free stuff in return

2018-07-29 17:59:40 UTC  

(face palm)

2018-07-29 17:59:44 UTC  

What do you do when you have more money

2018-07-29 17:59:48 UTC  

You spend it at some point,

2018-07-29 17:59:49 UTC  

No?

2018-07-29 17:59:49 UTC  

***socialism intensifies***

2018-07-29 18:00:05 UTC  

More money in people's pockets means a better economy

2018-07-29 18:00:09 UTC  

So low tax

2018-07-29 18:00:15 UTC  

not always

2018-07-29 18:00:22 UTC  

Yes always
