Are you trying to imply that the people you disagree with politically - presumably those to the right of center - all fit into the cartoon caricature you just painted? The things you listed aren't even political issues but social ones.

You're right, there is a huge chunk of right of center people who hate women and minorities but keep their opinions behind closed doors. How could OP have lumped them with those who are open about those opinions!

Just for your edification I have that guy tagged as the Avatar of Elon Musk. As in he says the most horrific things you'll ever see and then describes himself as center right. There was a thread a few days ago where he argued that Free Will shouldn't exist and we should all just follow the orders of our betters. Presumably Elon Musk.

Sounds like a typical enlightened centrist.

Curiously, once you Scooby Doo their mask off they're always quite far to the right of the centre they claim to value so much.
