Funny how these neither right nor left types always seem to skew a certain way

"Should we have slaves? Should we abolish slavery?"

"...maybe!...Let's keep some slaves, but get rid of others?"

I love this one, I always keep it on my holster whenever someone demands I explain why they (a centrist) are siding of nazis.

They're always expecting some bullshit debate and are thrown completely off guard when I show them that. I think only one has bothered to even fight back after seeing that and they were a hardcore nazi who was just using centrism as a shield for their massive amounts of bigotry.

It's like, why should I bother wasting my energy fighting a losing battle when I can just say "you're a nazi, and this is your one chance to stop"

In this household we make fun of "enlightened centrists". I always envision some pretentious douche when they call themself that.

It reminded me of liberal democratic party of Russia (they are far right). Communist party of Russia also is no communist :)

My favourite is "The Workers' Party of Korea" of the "Democratic People's Republic of Korea".

Where it should just be called Kim Jong Un Club of Kim Jong Un Land.
