The reason your “middle of the road” approach doesn’t make sense is because if you really decide like that, one side just has to get more and more extreme for you to “sympathize” with their side, since suddenly the middle will shift in their direction. You can be easily manipulated that way.

There are very few situations where a choises are black and white. In most cases we are talking about shades of gray. I think that this us vs them mentality on the internet is pretty dumb in most cases.

I was not able to express myself clearly enough that you understand what I was talking about. Should I try again or do you not care?
