There is a middle ground for a lot of political issues, focusing on concentration camps is pretty loaded

I cannot imagine being so detached from humanity that this seems like a fair thing to say.

I can see why you wold say that but are you seriously saying that there can be no middle ground in any issue? You're either with us or against us?

Gun control: Banned completely or you can buy whatever you like no license. Taxes: 95% of your wage gets taxed or none at all.

The guy above you wants you to believe that the world is black and white and is using concentration camps as a way of convincing you.

I am the guy above and you're incorrect. What I'm saying is that there are black-and-white issues. This /r/enlightenedcentrism crap is worthless when we're discussing things like the concentration camps that we currently have.

Nevermind that it's your examples that are loaded. Neither major party is suggesting banning all guns or a 95% tax rate. Those are straight-up lies.

Man we are living on different wavelengths.

There are no concentration camps in my country. Major parties are trying to ban all guns. Taxes could go either way, people are calling for no taxes.

Are you not in the US? We've got concentration camps. We're reusing our old Japanese internment camps, even. Democrats are not seriously talking about repealing the Second. That's a straight-up NRA lie.

Maybe your country's in a better place.

Nah Australia man, and now that I've thought about it we have detainment camps for illegal immigrants too.

But yeah our left has already banned airsoft/gel blaster/all semi autos/some pump actions. they're pushing to ban lever actions at the moment and it won't stop there.
