Kinism is fundamentally what all of humanity lived by until the last few decades when only some humans (curiously all in the West) were told it needed to be eschewed for an interracial alternative which certain people claimed was always the norm.

Looking at the insane infighting happening with AA right now, I can only imagine this a century ago, no other reason than to purely illustrate the word game:
“National Socialism?! No one would ever support that! They’re going to think we’re all a bunch of degenerate communists and Marxists! You’re playing their game! And Nationalism has already been used! If they wanted that, they’d just go to the DNVP!”

(Some goofy sayings, but a few are wise).
“Your fences need to be horse-high, pig-tight and bull-strong.
Keep skunks, bankers, and politicians at a distance.
Life is simpler when you plow around the stump.
A bumble bee is considerably faster than a John Deere tractor.
Words that soak into your ears are whispered, not yelled.
The best sermons are lived, not preached.
If you don't take the time to do it right, you'll find the time to do it twice.
Don't corner something that is meaner than you.
Don’t pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight, he’ll just kill you.
It don’t take a very big person to carry a grudge.
You cannot unsay a cruel word.
Every path has a few puddles.
When you wallow with pigs, expect to get dirty.
Don't be banging your shin on a stool that's not in the way.
Borrowing trouble from the future doesn't deplete the supply.
Most of the stuff people worry about ain’t never gonna happen anyway.
Don’t judge folks by their relatives.
Silence is sometimes the best answer.
Don‘t interfere with somethin’ that ain’t botherin' you none.
Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.
If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop diggin’.
Sometimes you get, and sometimes you get got.
The biggest troublemaker you’ll ever have to deal with watches you from the mirror every mornin’.
Always drink upstream from the herd.
Good judgment comes from experience, and most of that comes from bad judgment.
Lettin’ the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin’ it back in.
If you get to thinkin’ you’re a person of some influence, try orderin’ somebody else’s dog around.
Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older and think back, you’ll enjoy it a second time.
Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God.
Most times, it just gets down to common sense.”

“It's the Jews”
Extreme: Jews only exist as a victim group and exercise no power.
Sensible Centre: Jews have a responsibility to prevent extremists who speak in their name, such as Jonathan Greenblatt and his ADL group, from eroding our civil liberties.
""Sensible" centrism:
Democracy is a lie
Black people inherently uncivilized
No school for women
Overthrow all extant institutions
Christianity on strictly utilitarian basis
It's the Jews
These are the positions of the silent majority? This framing is highly suspect." - Anglo Ortho

This case against a UK veteran street preacher ended up settling, but the Crown Prosecutions argument during the court preceding was:
“There are references in the Bible which are simply no longer appropriate in modern society and which would be deemed offensive if stated in public”

We have officially switched from anti-Suicide warnings when you Google suicide to this. At least in Canada where this screenshot was taken.
The big issue with the “Sensible Centrism” fad is that it hasn’t really focused itself on foundational issues like the effective atheism that caused most of your issues today.
There’s no reason why you couldn’t make the same slippery appeal to tradition and frame something like church attendance as the “sensibly centrist” option (at least 1 hour a week to build community plus the reception of faith and restoration of what every single person in the West saw as normal until maybe a century ago). You don’t even have to say to go to a specific kind of church, just that you find a good one.
Because this would be such easy messaging, personally I’m led to believe that this is in no way serious despite what was laid out in the video on sensible centrism. The tactic could have worked quite well on a number of issues, effectively “normalizing” traditional practices and beliefs without idiotic labels that make normal people shove their head into sand.
1900 beliefs > 2000 beliefs and aren’t hard to sell.

Dave Martel finished voicing Arturo Rodriguez's replacement, Georgie O'Gill. I must say, it turned out awesome!
I have a guy working on a new jacket and scally cap for him. What you see here are just placeholders.
EDIT: Oh and the surname "O'Gill" is a nod to Darby O'Gill and The Little People, a movie I grew up watching.
