My point is that we need to repudiate the lie that there is a spectrum of political/social/economic thought. That being in the middle of the spectrum is somehow the optimal position (see my tagline.)
Oh glad you got what I said.
Actually we disagree on spectrum. I think there is a spectrum of thought and a population sort of moves to the middle which is a compromise either internally for an individual person or as part of a solution to how one runs a group of individuals.
I don’t think a population of people would ever unite under either a far left or far right thought. People are to individual for that.
Their are conservative who call themselves social conservatives but are liberal in terms of how they view economic issues. ANd socially liberal conservatives who don’t care what was people run their personal lives but are conservative economically.
We don’t march in lock step and have to find a way to live peacefully with each other.
