Radical Centrism

Radical Centrism is a political philosophy which seeks to use pragmatism in order to arrive at the underlying benefits to approaches from the Left-wing, Right-wing, and also off the regular spectrum of American politics. By seeking to find the best possible solutions through compromise, while still producing something meaningful and un-watered down, Radical Centrism is an attempt to form a political philosophy that is purely American in origin, and ready to tackle the problems our country faces in the 21st century. There are many proponents of this approach today, including authors such as Mark Satin and Ted Halstead, as well think tanks such as the New America Project, which was founded and run by leaders of the tech industry in Silicon Valley.
Ex- John, 24, and like many of his generation, has decided to abandon a "side" in the polarized Left or Right debate in American politics, and instead choose the pragmatic view of Radical Centrism.

Idiot Radiation

Emanating from exceptionally stupid people Idiot Radiation has the effect of slowly chipping away at a persons intelligence/sanity. Although mild exposure can leave the exposed feeling angry, bitter, and or homicidal for short to moderate periods of time prolonged exposure has been known to increase an individuals resistance, acting as a form of inoculation. (At least in the cases where prolonged exposure hasn’t resulted in violence.)

Idiot Radiation poisoning is common to individuals working in fields that require daily contact with the public.

Effective treatments include: Listening to music, deep breathing, and becoming a hermit. Although alcohol has been known to be an effective treatment, in sufficient quantities it can result in an individual becoming the source of Idiot Radiation and should therefore be considered only as a last resort.

Idiot Radiation tends to effect groups more severely contributing to the ‘mob mentality.’

The only known cure is the complete eradication of the human species.

Radical Democracy

Wherein you claim to want others to have so much freedom and choice that you force it upon them at the point of a rifle or tank barrel whether they want it or not. Thus also ensuring that their "choices" are the same as yours (you wouldn't want any pesky surprise outcomes after all).
We liberated the country and through radical democracy we installed a new (temporary) government that at least some of the population have heard of and at least some even voted for.

Radical democracy, for when you don't like the outcomes of traditional democracy.
