    I like it but I wish the enlightened centrist had more dumb shit to say, they have so many fantastic lines such as “there’s no real difference between right or left”

      “the far left and the far right are the same. No I won’t support the far left and yes I will compromise with the far right. Why do you ask?”

        We’re forced to play a rigged game. The only way to stop it requires too much risk/sacrifice. It’s easier to just survive. Not saying it’s right or wrong but the question we should ask ourselves is “what am I willing to give up to break this game?”

      Pretty sure the ‘enlightened centrist’ in this meme represents the ‘leftwing’ party, does it not? That’s the party that ‘compromises’ when the Overton window moves right.

      Everybody on the actual left is represented by the crying figure.
