An international (English speaking) socialist Lemmy community free of the “ML” influence of instances like lemmy.ml and lemmygrad. This is a place for undogmatic shitposting and memes from a progressive, anti-capitalist and truly anti-imperialist perspective, regardless of specific ideology.
Rules:
Be a decent person.
No racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, zionism/nazism, and so on.

Trying to sound reasonable is far from the same as trying to be reasonable.
If they were trying to be reasonable they wouldn't be centrists, they'd be as far away as possible from conservative, corporatist parasites, fascits, and similar critters, instead of trying to appease them.
But of course “centrists” aren't trying to be reasonable. “Centrist” is just the label those parasites use when trying to disguise their nature from their victims.
You're assuming that everyone else has the same information as you, and that they choose to ignore it deliberately. Everyone learns different things about the world at different times, it's unreasonable to conclude that anyone who differs from you is doing so deliberately.
You've started with your conclusion and you've worked backwards to find your reasoning.
