Historical note related to my previous: Way back in the halcyon days of blogging, I set up
https://centrist.blogspot.com/ .">https://centrist.blogspot.com/">... It purports to &
#39;speak for the centrists.&
#39; I purposefully never posted anything after the (then-ubiquitous) fluff &
#39;first post&
#39; as a sort of meta-joke. 1/
The alleged joke being, of course, that
"centrists" don&
#39;t actually believe anything, they just float along with the prevailing current and congratulate themselves for their &
#39;open-mindedness.&
#39; 2/
The problem with such a meta-joke is that, by its very nature, no one will ever notice it. Unless I point it out (like this thread is doing), no-pne who stumbles across it will realize it&
#39;s intended as a joke.
In short, it&
#39;s a crappy joke; but it still amuses me, at least. Fin/
