    I hate that this is true, plus he’s already said he would “take the best of the left and the best of the right” as some nonsense enlightened centrist candidate.

      Yup. He had a community post saying he was too young to run but if he could run it wouldnt be about left or right, he’d sit down with both sides and work out a compromise. Previously i thought the minimum age should be lowered but after seeing something so naive i reconsidered.

        To be fair, i think making an effort to de-radicalize and deescalate american politics would go a long way

        I don’t watch Mr Beast, nor do i know anything about him, but my gut says he’s not a good fit for this purpose

        I don’t know, i just wish politics wasn’t such a cult-of-personality, us-vs-them scream fest. I just can’t be bothered to care when everyone is at each other’s throats over everything

        It’s centrist nonsense, if someone says a waterfall flows downstream and someone else says the waterfall flows upstream, that doesn’t mean the waterfall is stagnant, or that the person who said it flows upstream has a good point.

        The left and right aren’t arbitrary collections of disorganized and incoherent positions you can combine ad-hoc.
