How would you deal with these Nazis and other fellow Americans who you disagree with? Let’s say you’re the new president and your party controls both houses of government.
Trump is allowing people to be disappeared to El Salvador. Would you do the same to these people you call Nazis? What about the 45 million or so people who voted for this shit?
I agree the political situation sucks. But solutions aren’t easy, and eventually, at the end of the day, we have to be united or there is only war and violence forever.
You don’t have to be a centrist to be able to work with people whose priorities are not the same as your own. Most modern democracies actually have fairly healthy cooperation between different political parties who are quite far apart on the issues that matter the most to them.
You seem to be having a different argument to me. Are you abandoning politics altogether then?
I want to see an alternative to the big two as much as anyone. We don’t get there through opting out of civic participation.
Armed revolution i.e. civil war will likewise just be a disster. Countless deaths and decades of chaos aren’t worth a possibility of something that might be better, if there is any alternative.

centrists only want to unite with republicans. They only want to oppose the left.

Democrats spent a year supporting a genocide. How much further to the right do you want them to go?
As though there’s a limit.
