'''Spider-Carnage:''' Well, I believe it's a matter of perspective!\\
'''Spider-Man:''' "Perspective"? Whoa-whoa-whoa, my perspective is that you look fucking horrifying! Like, what are you covered in, is that-- is that Venom?\\
'''Spider-Carnage:''' [[AxCrazy Carnage.]]\\
'''Spider-Man:''' All right, even worse, so you merge with the ''Carnage'' symbiote, you-you've got a literal {{damsel in distress}}, you opened up a black hole over the city, I-I mean, you really don't think you lost your way just a little bit?\\
'''Spider-Carnage:''' You're so naive! Sometimes the end justifies the means!\\
'''Spider-Man:''' And what's that, exactly?\\
'''Spider-Carnage:''' I've opened a portal into oblivion that will soon consume the entire city, ''and then the world!''\\

I don't think it can be factually said that all people who've looked for civil rights have just looked. Unless we're equating the Black Panthers with Luther King.



->'''Anti-Radical''': I was the brave force telling [[UsefulNotes/CivilRightsMovement those people looking for civil rights]], that they were looking for civil rights too extremely!
->'''Horseshoe Centrist''': Well, if you think about it, there was really no difference between them having civil rights and not having civil rights.

->''"What the centrist misses is that the intellectual debate is necessary and important. It matters a great deal whether the just society is egalitarian or libertarian or what have you. That has immense implications for how we should live, how we should treat each other, for all facets of life. To say that we do not need to do serious thinking, serious reasoning, to reach conclusions in that discussion, that we can just triangulate whatever positions are out there, amounts to an anti-reason, anti-intellectual position. It is a cheap, unprincipled, valueless position. It skips all the important steps in philosophy, all the premises and arguments, and just assumes that everyone is equally right and equally wrong, and that if we throw all of the positions together and average them, we’ll get something acceptable. Philosophy does not work like that. Politics does not work like that. It is disrespectful to the field, to statecraft itself, that people think in this way. It trivialises and simplifies what is not trivial, what cannot be simplified."''

->''"That sounds like a decent compromise because it's the middle-ground position, right? The problem is, it's the middle ground between ''sense'' and ''nonsense''. It's like saying, 'It would be crazy to eat that entire bar of soap, so I'll just eat half of it.'"''

->''"Two opposing sides don't necessarily have two compelling arguments. Martin Luther King spoke on that mall in the capital, and he didn't say, 'Remember, folks, those Southern sheriffs with the fire hoses and the German Shepherds, they have a point, too!' No, he said, 'I have a dream. They have a nightmare.' This isn't [[Literature/{{Twilight}} 'Team Edward' and 'Team Jacob']]."''
