MODERATORS
moderates need to stop only punching left.
hitler got into power because their moderates refused to appeal to their leftist voters and supported facism and so hitler's side won the election and, later, the country after they disenfranchised the moderates and executed the leftists; right now it's looking like americans are going to follow suit.
Idk I feel like moderates punch both left and right lol. The extremists on both sides are annoying.
If you're talking about the US, they certainly aren't punching hard enough then. Trump is an extremist and basically leading right wing politics.
i can only speak for the western world since that's what i learned about as an american and there's a recorded history of punching left significantly harder than punching right.
