Yeah I think what I dislike about that is it breaks up the flow of whatever I am writing.
No, It doesn’t have to.
You can just write it out straight, without formatting, and then after you’re done that go back and add the asterisks to emphasize the parts that you want to emphasize, already having your thoughts jotted down.
I’ll clarify, I’m just putting out a reminder that being fascist is not an inherent trait, like green eyes or dark skin. Literally anyone can fall into the trap of fascist thinking. The only way to be truly anti-fascist is to recognize the warning signs in your own thoughts and worldview.
So centrism can sometimes be a trap, but don’t demonize the practice of seeing both sides. Taking a hard line with one sides is a step on the path to becoming a fascist.

For comments, that’s how I do it.
Throw one, too, or three asterisks around each side of the sentence you want to highlight.
No need for special verbage or nomenclature. It’s done visually.
There should be a distinction between the OP of the thread and the OP of the comment imo. It can get confusing.
OPT and OPC?
Something like that, yeah. Is that a thing already or did you just come up with it?
Unless I accidentally reinvented them, those came from me.

This sounds like a great idea!

For sure I think Nazis and Tankies are both gross, and I have a kind of out-group bias against them, but I never advocate for violence against them.
Except maybe punching Nazis, but nothing serious damaging or life threatening.
Wise words.
It’s how Peace is achieved.
And War, and death.
