      He considers himself a centrist in his political beliefs […]

      He probably believes capitalism has some merits, so he’s not pure enough for Lemmy.

        Pretty much everything is pretty standard lefty stuff until I got to taxes.

        Our tax plan rewards hard work and success by reducing the percentage of income you pay in taxes as you earn more. It supports small businesses, simplifies taxes, rewards innovation, and promotes environmental responsibility. It’s all about creating a fair and balanced tax system.

        What the fuck my dude.

          Ah, so he’s not smart enough to understand how a progressive tax system works. At least he’s in good company seeing as that’s the norm if my lunch room discussions at work are any indication.
