First, when did Trump go on a diet?
But also, MAGA is extreme right.
I’ve come to realize that the visual of left and right suggests that a balance lies somewhere in the middle.
This of course couldn’t be further from objective truth. The survival of our species relies on, for lack of a better term, being optimally nice to one another. And there really is no middle ground for compassion.
If leftists were all supremely compassionate and altruistic beings, then that might hold true. But I don’t see how anyone could spend much time in leftist spaces without realizing that that’s not the case.
If we didn’t live in such an imbalanced society that’s already skewed so far to the right, then center-left and center-right might be able to meet somewhere in the middle and make policies that work.
I realize that’s not the world we live in, but it’s a fallacy to assume that the way things are is the only way they could be, could have been, or could ever be.
As things stand today, centrism is a form of appeasement and tacit approval for the gradual slide to the right. For the same reason that you can’t argue in good faith with someone intent on arguing in bad faith.
The political process only works as it’s supposed to when everyone involved comes to the table with good intentions, and engages in the process civilly, respecting the rules. The far-right (which has co-opted the entire right wing at this point) doesn’t play by the rules, so the center-left attempting to take the moral high ground and reach across the aisle because they still believe the political system can work as it’s supposed to, is basically just losing a game of tug of war because they didn’t get the memo that they’re supposed to be pulling the other way.
Actually, anyone left of Peter Thiel is extreme lunatic left wing in USA. The rest are moderates
Well, yes, the USA politics is dominated by two extreme-right parties, and while “right” and “left” are mostly meaningless terms, on such extreme cases they actually have clear meanings.
The “Pro-Oligarchy We Love Fascism As Long As It’s Abroad” Party and the “Screw It We Just Love Fascism Everywhere” Party
no, they’re just right. They are the same right that was depicted in “the blues brothers” and in “easy rider”. Plain 'ol vanilla right.
It’s a meme from the future. It’s Baron Trump’s avatar, sometime in the 2060s, running for Cyborgovernor of the People’s Republic of MexUsCan, also known as East America.
He’s running against an even further right, Musk clone that is secretly just a neuralink-addled vessel for HAI, The Heitage Foundation AI.
Centrists: “We just have to wait til 2028”
The guy on the far right isn’t fat or saggy enough.
Trump is waaaay not fat enough in this.
Ozempic Trump is not real, he can’t hurt you.
Pretty sure he can in other ways.
Lmfaooo
“You can’t talk about the bad things he does, you’re gonna make people hate him. It’s somehow not his responsibility to stop doing bad things, it’s your responsibility to not talk about it”
