->''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; who constantly says: “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action”; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a “more convenient season.” Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection.''

->At its core, centrism is about the idea that there are two sides to any situation that both need to be considered. It's logical. It's reasonable. But it ignores the possibility that one of the sides ''might just be wrong''. Sometimes people lie. Sometimes they're spinning a narrative. Sometimes they're straight up trying to defend the indefensible.
->If I say the sky is blue and someone else says the sky is red, the responsible thing to do is not to decide the sky must be purple as a compromise between the two positions. The responsible thing to do is to look out the window, see that the sky is clearly blue, and question what the fuck that other guy's on about.
