Boogie bad I used to give him the benefit of the doubt. Y'know, I'd think, yeah, his opinions are garbage, but maybe he's just been so sheltered and so obsessed with being "nice" that he can't really see how both sides aren't the same. (This was a couple years ago, for the record.) These days, no. Nobody is this incapable of learning. Nobody is this oblivious. He's doing this poo poo because he wants people to rush to "abuse" and "hate" him online so he can bask in the support of his legion of enablers. I'm not a psychologist, and even if I was, I wouldn't be his psychologist, so the rest of this is total speculation that is probably extremely wrong. I sorta doubt he's doing this all with clear eyes and a clear head as a cynical, planned-out strategy. I think he's probably doing it compulsively because it keeps getting him attention. I think he gets more offended when people attack him from "the left" because he actually does see himself as somehow an ally of LGBTQ people, much the same way as white liberals think they're not racist and lash out self-righteously when their racism is pointed out. The difference is that he has hundreds of people who will rush in every time to reassure him that no, he is right to sit on that fence, and it is the leftists who are too fragile and too extreme. That group of enablers does include people who are genuinely suckered in by his nice guy act, but there are also probably tons and tons of right-wing jackoffs who love to use Boogie to build up the impression that "the right" is capable of civil debate while "the left" forms attack mobs. Anyway that's my pseudo-psychology for the day, and in conclusion, Boogie bad

Terrible Opinions posted:They weren't even open to religion. It was only the insistence of the Quaker population of Pennsylvania to prevented the Puritans from doubling down on renewing persecution of Catholics and Jews like they had done in England before getting kicked out during the Civil War. Sorta. I remember most of the founders being pretty cool with different religions and sects, I think John jay hated Catholics though. I’d have to read more on it. I am not really giant worshiper of the founding father cult of personality bullshit though I find many of them interesting people in a bunch of ways.

nine-gear crow posted:Given what I know about William Shatner, I'm not surprised by either of those counts. What's really (not) funny is either the racist stuff was Shatner's idea, his ghost-writer put it in and Shatner approved it, or he didn't bother to look at or read anything and thus best case scenario he's a racist by... omission, maybe? In happier news, Mike and Conor get a lot of mileage out of the book's attempt to future things up with the abundance of 'plas-noun' and 'las-noun.' Also that robots print things out when you ask them questions. The future belongs to Dot Matrix.

It's Mary-land. Massachusetts exists because Puritans decided to create an ideal religious society, creating the first Massholes.

MLK, in his "Letter from a Birmingham jail" posted:I must confess that over the past few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to 'order' than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice. People like Boogie have always been hindrances to progress.

They might be inconvenienced but usually that’s it. They will tell you that too. A lot can’t even grasp that politics has consequences.

It's why most of the #resistance poo poo that's led by rich white hollywood types balk at actual resistance like yelling at people at their house, because they're actually just fine waiting out the rise of fascism.

The nonsense Boogie spouts isn’t centrism. The definition of the word seems to have been corrupted in recent years by people like him, who reduce it to “avoid conflict whenever possible and try not to have a strong opinion on anything”, but that’s not what it’s supposed to mean. Legitimate centrists do have political opinions, often very strongly-held ones; they just don’t always align with the same party. They’re often not in the exact center either, most tending to agree with one side more than the other. Maybe this is just quibbling over definitions, though. Whatever he calls himself, he’s still an idiot.

It's not centrism, it's self-interest. And Boogie is a really lovely person at his core, so his convictions and opinions are really lovely as a result of that self-interest.

The latest Philosophy Tube video is simultaneously about Immanuel Kant's racism, whether we can separate his moral philosophy from that, and also the constraints of working within academia, especially for people of color. Though, uh, fair warning that his shirt at the very start is probably NSFW https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weiz9wbIcGQ nine-gear crow posted:It's not centrism, it's self-interest. And Boogie is a really lovely person at his core, so his convictions and opinions are really lovely as a result of that self-interest. Yeah, and my noting that Boogie is likely doing this compulsively isn't intended to absolve him of responsibility for his manipulative behavior. He's a lovely manipulative rear end in a top hat but has cultivated enough of a "harmless, well-meaning dude" image that people who are only vaguely aware of him might think that he's being unfairly targeted, when actually he's just lovely.

The problem is that "centrism" refers to supporting the ideology of the current ruling class without explicitly identifying it. It's always something vile because otherwise they could say it outright. We have a term for supporting what the average person on the street supports and it's populism.

I've always thought that Centrism was being big huge on the 'Truth is in the Middle' ideology and Boogie is just that taken to it's most powerful form where all things are equal. Burning a cross in the front yard of a black family and forgetting to put more water in your puppy's bowl for an hour are both equally bad.

Well, no, you see, rational morality requires us to put a certain weight on every bad thing, so actually there's a number, say a million, of times you could forget to put water in your puppy's bowl which will equal how bad burning a cross on a black family's lawn is. Why yes I did stop going to ethics class once I got an A on my trolley problem quiz!

All along, it was a problem of capitalization. It's not Truth is in the middle. It's Truth is in The Middle, the hit pop punk song by Jimmy Eat World.quote:Hey Really, isn't that more truthful than "we should compromise between nuking Iran and nuking nobody by nuking half of Iran"?

Centrism is the idea that everyone's opinion is valid and we should treat everyone equally. The wheels fall right off when anyone points out that that means "kill all the Jews" must be given equal time as "don't kill the Jews, you racist bigot". And then the Centrists double-down and get defensive about Centrism.

Centrism is simply embrace of the current political status quo and rejection of anyone, left or right, who seeks to change it. It's small-c conservatism. Naturally, if the status quo sucks, this makes centrism reprehensible.

The way Boogie rationalizes himself as "centrist" is more like "averagist". He's said so many extremely dumb things in so many different ways that have angered so many people, it's like his idiotic opinions make up the extreme circumference of a circle and the average is the center. And if it's really bad, walking something heinous back the day after he gets backlash puts him at that same starting point, his center.
