I often see on here that someone that says they are Center just means they are right wing.

Eg. this post https://piefed.social/c/wikipedia@lemmy.world/p/2492350/centre-party

Center Party = Far right.

And I get that that is often true, but that got me thinking, when is someone actually "Center?"

I am a immigrant.

I feel countries should have strong immigration laws, and that immigrants should integrate into the country they move to if they plan to stay (at least somewhat, not completely)

I've learnt the language and way of living of where I migrated too but most don't.

Basically I mostly agree with the Denmark model on immigration. https://youtu.be/W2b5z1FJTs8?is=fz9Kfp2XvT4mvkpb

Many EU countries have handled migration badly, which just fuels the far-right, and then everyone suffers anyway.

I'm pro LGBTQ, pro-abortion, Socialist, pro-wealth distribution etc.

So I'm mostly left, but not on everything.

Trigger Warning

spoiler
Oh and most controversially on lemmy by far and will probably get me flamed or banned on here, I feel that the best place to draw the line in how to categorize sports is that there should be a XX chromosome category.

I am not married to this idea, and open to change my mind, I just haven't heard of a better place to draw the line.

You can't use Testosterone levels, because there are women who are naturally born much higher T levels than what some sports would allow, meaning they would be forced to take hormones because an arbitrary line has been drawn lower than their natural levels.

Yes I know this will upset people, but before critiquing me on this, please also include an answer to where you think the line should be drawn, and no "Let the sport decide" isn't a answer.
