    That is not what jreg is about. Jreg’s entire point is that people need to be ideologically literate because “normal” and “moderate” don’t mean anything. He works to try to make political ideology entertaining enough to make it more accessible beyond the overton window. The character(s) he puts on don’t have any reflection on his actual beliefs and they never will because the point is to get people to think and arrive at their own conclusions. His anti-centrism is a parody, because satire and political comedy is his niche, and he does a damn good job at it

      I get his point about centrists, but I do think he engages in a little horseshoe theory (once he put juche on the same tier as fascism because it’s a “wacky” ideology or something like that) Edit: actually he’s fine, just I little too anti-tankie
