What is the purpose of studying any philosophy or ideology?
What does it serve me, when i basically experience the world throught a unique perception based on environment timing heredity etc, which in turn would make my choice of values and understanding?
You get to read how others perceive the world

Usually people that claims to be "open minded" and "considers all sides of the argument" are fedora-tier cringe faggots that doesn't have any valid arguments, and they are only doing it so they get praise for being so intelligent, "critical thinking" and "balanced."
Cringe

Also, centrists claim to be "above" the conflict between ideologies because they are very intelligent and they know how to "balance" things out.
The problem is that when you try to appease with all ideologies and become a "centrist," you ultimately end up with no friends because nobody really ends up liking you and your weak platform.

I might say centrism is pretty stable and wise sometimes, but sometimes a situation requires you to go big or go home (be very wrong or right); centrism during times of crises tends to fall apart thanks to its overall mediocrity in direction.
So basically, centrists are those that don't like making high-risk high-reward bets in politics.
Btw. I didnt make the meme, nor do i fully agree. Just using it as an example
