1. People who are secretly racist, misogynist, etc but don’t want to openly admit it.
2. People who bandwagon with the winning team so they look popular, until the winning team looks bad, then they’re “not one of them.”
3. People who lack the intellectual capacity or intestinal fortitude to legitimately pick a side.
Meanwhile real left wing: âWe will make sure to crash the economy so everyone can be poor together. Even if the average is worse than the low point before, itâs better because it is equally shit for everyone. Also, no one can decide anything for themselvesâ
I think both sides kinda suck – the left just sucks a little less. At the end of the day its the 1% vs everyone else and all these culture wars are just a distraction
Finally a good post in this sub
All the Centrists got offended and proved OP right, it seems.
You can be a centrist and still vote blue from time to time. Itâs a huge generalization
“Genocide is bad, but the left is smug, so I’m going to vote for the genocide guys, because at lest they’re nice!”
Imagine ignoring physical reality because you don’t like the messenger. Ultra stupidity!!!
nah
“The parties are all the same” is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard…. and yet we keep hearing it, despite all the evidence to the contrary. Are these people blind? Do people just lack reasoning skills?
Way to be wrong.and barely funny
Most Centrists, Actual centrists, can tell the difference.
Currently actual centrists recognize the right wings’. grievance but realize their view and solution are wrong. Centrists currently vote with the left but criticize their unrealistic or overly optimistic policy.
“Centrists” are embarrassed conservatives or the politically lazy.
The Left Wing focuses on the “Centrists” because Centrists give valid criticism but “Centrists” are beatable enemies.
Thatâs comparing the regular left to the alt right
Also, thatâs not what centrism is about lol
In response to the dispute going on in the comments: In a USA in 2025 context, this meme makes a lot of sense. I readily acknowledge that, in a global/world-historical context, there are/have been left-wing regimes, such as in China and the former USSR, that have been authoritarian and murderous and have grossly failed to ensure public needs have been met. But in Trump’s America, the authoritarian far-right has become by far the majority viewpoint within the right as the Epstein-list-member-in-chief follows the Hitler playbook, and the mainstream, non-fascist right has been almost entirely chased out of public office. Meanwhile the true far-left (as opposed to the progressives sometimes inaccurately labeled as far-left by people with motivations to create a false sense of equivalency) has essentially zero influence. Bernie, AOC, Zohran, etc. are not Chairman Mao or even Maduro.
the neutral and centrists are the worst people.
Then the left makes fun of the center for not getting it (you deserve it for being so dense), so the center votes for Trump because âthe left is just so nastyâ
Why is the “left-wing” blue?
Whoâs going to tell OP that liberal Democrats arenât left wing because of capitalism?
âPick a side or youâre not valid!!â You want to continue to rip America apart by forcing your peers to choose a division? Foolish.
You can have moral beliefs without branding yourself with a team color or wing. This post (and country) is focused on symbolic representation of assumed values rather than an objective look at issues.
Post about specific issues rather than ego-driven righteous identity rants. Trump is a well documented sexual predator and his admin continues to aide and abed his escape from justice. Release the files.
What a simplistic viewpoint for a complicated subject. Dems keep losing because they blame everybody else for everything. Y’all need to take a look inside your party and figure out how to connect with voters.
Y’all need to be actively accepting voters, not pushing people away because they don’t fully adhere to your current version of perfect.
Biden has 4 years to release the Epstein files, fix the Supreme Court, got a leak that the republicans were planning to cheat in the election, and could have started a trial on Trump immediately. He instead did nothing. Not all of it, thereâs a good bit of this in his head.
How dare people not agree with you!
“Both sides are the same” is a coping mechanism. If you recognize your side’s policies are downright evil, pretending the other side is “just as bad” gives you an excuse to keep doing what you’re doing.
It’s why the vast majority of people who say it lean conservative.
When you replace political discourse with memes you are going to one up with a bad government.
Yep that’s a good characterization of the left and right wing….
fucking cretin.
This is so insanely hyperbolic and just not true.
The dems aren’t trying to meet anyone’s needs, but your jubilance about their fake attempts is heartening, that said theyre never gonna do anything significant to help you.  Bandaid in a gaping wound at best.  So sure, they ARE better than the alternative.
The other side is not interested in paying out of their own pockets to ensure your life doesnt suck.  Selfish, but Ive never once heard a common conservative call for culling anyone.  Keyword here being common.
Get off the internet.  Trump is nuts but the average person is not on the extremes of either side.Â
I’m socially liberal but a fiscal conservative. Does that make me a centrist? I don’t think there’s really anything bad about that.
I think Marc Maron recently said something in his new special about how progressives need to do something about their “buzz kill problem” because apparently they “annoy the average American into fascism.”
Its over fascist centrists, i draw myself as the chad and i win the imaginary argument.
This meme would hit harder if it didnât say âscoialâ. Now I canât share it on other platforms.
Somehow the “Left” being unable to recognize its own “sins” may contribute to its continued residence in the wilderness.
May you find your north star some day.
My MIL recently told me she voted for Biden the first time and then because of âall the immigrantsâ plus the money for Ukraine, she voted for Trump. She then proceeded to talk about protesters being paid by *someone* (she had no idea who), Biden showering with his daughter, and the Chinese communist party infiltrating Texas. Lady, turn off Fox News and think about what youâre saying.Â
There’s a segment of both sides that are the same in this one annoying way. You all make fun of and shit on the other side. You take no time to understand someone who has different values and life experiences. You all make these kinds of memes that exaggerate and simplify some point in a cartoonish way without any nuance. It’s basically ground up political propaganda. There’s people on the right exactly like you in this way.Â

Centrists generally fall into three categories:
1. People who are secretly racist, misogynist, etc but don’t want to openly admit it.
2. People who bandwagon with the winning team so they look popular, until the winning team looks bad, then they’re “not one of them.”
3. People who lack the intellectual capacity or intestinal fortitude to legitimately pick a side.
