== History == |
|||
⚫ | Dead Centrism has only half a personality, and their (half) personality is just indifference. Don't talk to them or you'll be (half) bored to death. They always make a perfect compromise. Because of this, they tend to advocate things that are considered very extreme and wacky for a centrist, like gassing half the Jews as a compromise between gassing no Jews and gassing all of them. They tend to hang out with horseshoe centrism. |
