My left hand is dominant. It works better. Though, strangely, I am tapping my screen pad with my right index finger just fine.That’s what I just said

But you know, kimmio, the "right" doesn't comprise just the extreme right. It encompasses lots of "conservative" thinkers - those who look to the past for solutions. You might not like the exact balance of left and right at present, but the fact remains that one needs both "wings" - both those who look to the past for solutions, and those who look to the future for inspiration. It's not an either/or thing, but a both/and thing.

Esp. since the Right Hand has a wider more developed Moral Sense
Also your riff reminds me of a real incident where some Westerners came upon a "more primitive" people whose crops were tied heavily into their religion and culture and these Westerners said they could improvd vastly (scientifically) their yield, more efficient, etc with none of that superstitious nonsense necessary.
So they tried it out.
And nearly died.
So they went back to their old ways.
Sounds like one of us Liberals/Progressives again thinking we're better
So thank you, Pontifex Geronimo 13, we Left hands need you to survive this heavily complex world
Centrally Fringe,

Nope. The centre has shifted. In my opinion, and lots of actual political analysts (there's a map I'll look for - Harper was there in Obama's quadrant with him - but Canadians correctly were suspicious of his xenophobic omnibus bills and other authoritarian moves), someone like Trudeau or Obama would be right of centre. They campaign to the left and govern to the right, those neoliberals. The right is so extreme today, they think those two are practically Karl Marx himself.
And the centre right will always go further right and make excuses for the social misery that causes - they represent the wealthy - they seem to never move left.

Exactly
Its in all aspects of reality
Even bacteria
When they find a food source they become sessile, put down roots...
And when the food source begins or runs out, some of the bacteria lose those roots and become innovators, searching for new food sources...

Obama is right wing compared to Canadians
Everyone is in USA.
That's just how it works.
The real problems are those on the fringe, the extreme Liberals and Conservatives...the Stalins and Pol Pots...
And this shift to the extremes, towards the Stalinism of Antifa and those who believe in social conflict theory (with coerced speech) and the Hitlerism of Nazis are what various groups are trying to slow down or stop or deal with...like Jordan Peterson, the IDW, Quillette, Sam Harris, EFF, Candace Owens, sombunall postmodernists, Maajid Nawaz, just to name a few very recent modern examples...
I don't know how successful we're gonna b; we're dealing with mass behaviour
But we're gonna keep trying
You and I I think want the same thing: a fairer world.

The centre only has moral reference to what it's in the centre of. Right now - it's in the centre of right and far right. What was centre left is now fringe.
Antifa (because they exist doesn't make anti-fascism itself bad) though definitely bad behaviour, scuffles with the neo-Nazis who organize to come to towns from elsewhere (scuffles to try to keep them out), vandalism - has not been responsible for recent deaths by extremists in the US. The majority have been from the far right. Not the far left, not Islam - but the far right.
So, for Jordan Peterson to spend most of his time arguing against the left - he's either stupid, or he's underhanded. I don't think it's the former.

Yes. Neoliberals really ramped that up in the past few decades(not progressives or the left - neoliberalism is an ideology that favours corporatism). And the governments who join them lean pretty far right these days.

Denver Paid Clean-Up Company $400,000 to Help in Houseless Sweeps
On November 21, 2018, Denver Homeless Out Loud hosted a rally outside Denver’s City Hall to call for an end to the sweeps, which over the past month have been “at a point of insanity,” according to DHOL member Terese Howard.
“It is at a point where if you are for a second laying down somewhere near the Rescue Mission or the triangle with a sleeping bag, then you are told to move. You are told you cannot cover yourself with that blanket within seconds. There’s cops parked at that area, multiple cops, 24/7 for the past 3 1/2 weeks.” – Terese Howard
Unicorn Riot was live at the rally, which you can watch in full below:

"Right here at the Denver City and County Building is the Nativity Scene that the City sets up every winter and some folks here tonight were talking about how if Jesus was here today he would be criminalized through the unauthorized camping ordinance by the Denver Government."

What is Justin Trudeau Up To Today?

Very disappointed with General Motors and their CEO, Mary Barra, for closing plants in Ohio, Michigan and Maryland. Nothing being closed in Mexico & China. The U.S. saved General Motors, and this is the THANKS we get! We are now looking at cutting all @GM subsidies, including....

....for electric cars. General Motors made a big China bet years ago when they built plants there (and in Mexico) - don’t think that bet is going to pay off. I am here to protect America’s Workers!

I'm talking about the political left and right. Jesus' original sayings were not at a time when there was a political left and right. That came out of the French Revelution. Today's right is chasing out Roma and immigrants. If Jesus was a Mexican man, woman or child, he'd be tear gassed at the Mexican border. If he was a child he might be separated from Mary and Joseph, never to see them again. The left and right, politically, are not equally bad. The right is worse. Much worse.
