"Why can't we just meet in the middle and wipe half the minorities off the planet?"

Easy there, discount Thanos

Maybe we should start an equally extreme movement on the left so that the centrist actually know what the centre is supposed to be.

"Minorities should be our supreme leaders, that enslaves the majority"

This is, unironically, what they tell one another we believe

It's getting to this point. The left need to start arming themselves and agitate for what we want. The over the decades the right-wing shifted right. To counter this the democratic party shifted right as well in an attempt to court the "undecided" voters.

This has failed spectacularly and they just alienated their actual base. Now the country has shifted right and the true leftists are left with little to no representation.

If you take a look at global demographics, that's already happened.....

We should all admit that both sides have a point. Let's all try to break out of our echo chambers.

Mostly because the echoing screams of suffering are getting a hit too loud in this chamber.

"In our latest innovation, we have added sound baffling to the echo chambers. The upshot is now people can hear themselves and nothing else, as requested. This helps narcissists keep out of others way and let people get on with their lives... What's the downside, you ask? Oh.... Well, the downside is that everyone else is predicted to suffer psychosis. Well, predict to suffer it 62% faster than now..... Anyways, mission accomplished!" /s
