I made 1 comment ever on r/trump which I am not even subbed to…

Imagine being brandished an enemy over a misunderstanding, and banned from an entire community. Especially via an automated method they admit isnt perfect? Now I must appeal? For what again? – That is Kill All Others mentality, and I am labeled the Other.

For context: I try to be a centrist, a proper one with proper devil’s advocation. I usually end up voting Democrat, but I like moderate Democrats and progressive Republicans. (But to be fair, even r/centrist over on Reddit is very… American-Left ideology). I think case-by-case application of ideologies to scenarios is best.

Here is them muting me for my shocked reply:

EDIT: Just wanted to specify with the above picture, I do not believe any side is correct, hence my use of quotation marks. Choosing sides at all, especially in a two-party system, is a mess and we have been warned this many times by many different successful leaders/philosophers. Even our founding fathers warned this… I would say this to an alt-right just as quickly as I do the alt-left.

    Ah yes, a limiting label by someone who pretends centrists cant have negative views about one side or the other.

    You are proof of concept. I vote Democrat resoundingly, and the one time i didnt it was for Gabbard. But I can still admit that I see this shit way more on the left-hand-side of American Politics.

    If I was a democrat who said this would you suddenly label me as a republican? Foolish mentality…
