Supplementary #WebsiteIdeologyTheoryPractice "mainstream is constructed, contingent, and fluid. We often hear how the 'extreme' is a threat to the 'mainstream', but this is not some objective reality with two fixed actors or positions. They are both contingent in themselves and in relation to one another. In any system, the construction and positioning of the mainstream necessitate the construction of an extreme, which is just as contingent and fluid. These are neither ontological nor historically-fixed phenomena and seeing them as such, which is common, is both uncritical and ahistorical. What is mainstream or extreme at one point in time does not have to be, nor remain, so. The second point is that the mainstream is not essentially good, rational, or moderate. While public discourse in liberal democracies tends to imbue the mainstream or 'centre' with values of reason and moderation, the reality can be quite different as is clearly demonstrated by the simple fact that what is mainstream one day can be reviled, as well as exceptionalised and externalised, as extreme the next, and vice versa."

@BethPinkley [name pseudonymized] [ontology] : @papagiordana @Dylan_Michel_ @JamesMelville @elonmusk @BillyM2k So since y'all bring up race (BLM) what else do you have to say. I promised to protect this country from you bums. I love the USA. I will not SLEEP when the traitors come. Civil War is what I feared when I left the Army last year because I will not kill my confused brothers #WOKE [URL redacted]
