I’m a conservative. I don’t mind the liberal stuff here. It’s good to learn the other side, but I don’t want a liberal echo chamber. I’d like to be more politically balanced in the fediverse. Is there any way I can do that?

    I got blasted a while back because I said I am a centrist who doesn’t fully side with anybody. Too many people want an echo chamber.

      Would you be a centrist in 1930s Germany too?

          What I meant is that not voting against Nazis/conservatives in a two party system is almost as bad as voting for them.

                Ah yes, the good ol’ argument that if I criticize the progressives in any way, that means I’m a Trump supporter. Get out of here with that bullshit.

                This binary view of politics is exactly what’s ruining this country.
