As a centrist, both sides scream that the other is to the extreme.
Right: “We should exterminate all people not like us”
Left: “We should work together and build a better future“
Centre: “Why are you so similar‽”
Literally proving my point. Nobody is saying to exterminate anyone except literal Nazis. I've had people claim that the left wants to be able to abort up til birth. You see how that is a gross mischarcterization of hundreds of millions of Americans? If you are claiming your side wants nothing but good and is perfect some the other is the literal devil there is something seriously wrong.
Oh fuck off mate.
We’ve all seen the end result go far-right governments when on power.

Yeah thats exactly the behaviour he meant. Thx for the example.
Which minority communities are the supporters and politicians of the Democrat party calling for the extermination of? I know Republicans and their surrogates have started talking about "hunting Democrats with dogs" and having gay people "line up against the wall", but I must have missed that rhetoric from the Democrats. Do you have a link or something I could check out?
