I would love to see a centrist argue against right wing policies. Once.
Not even to me just in general. Surely there is a library of video / audio / text examples out there that for some reason hasn't crossed my path, and a whole lotta shit has in almost 30 years of internet.
To quote myself above:
One of many reasons for this could be your choice of topics, the location of the argument, and your perception. Any Centrists in the argument may be on your side of that particular issue and therefore are appearing left-leaning to you at the moment. See Penn jillette, Richard Dawkins, Bill Maher and scads of psychologists authors for example of centrists who often appear to be one side or the other depending on the issue presented (and have been mislabeled as both sides by people not willing to understand nuance).
You not looking for them does not mean that they are not there. Them not coming out and identifying themselves continually does not mean they are not there.
Most of the Centrists I've spoken to also tend to argue the issue, and not the side. They see sides and at-all-costs group membership as a form of lunacy.
Just like anything in the world, your perception is not always reality, especially when it seems that you are looking to enforce an opinion, not find the truth.
Oh I gotcha. Right-leaning centrist here: fuck guns, don't ban abortion.
It's not that hard /shrug
Congrats. You are now a liberal going by USA terms.
That's not an argument, that's a conclusion. Conclusions are meant to go at the end of arguments.
