in my book far left are hexbears hence centrism is something like social democrats a la usa bernie

gotta hate politics and its muddy definitions but I unironically like to call myself centrist. Then I am surprised how controversial it is on the interwebs because apparently everyone has different definitions. They routinely make them up on the fly ๐Ÿชฐ

For me centrism is a fine art ๐ŸŽจ of staying far away from the madness of extremism ๐Ÿคช. I love centrism. I huff centrism. I breathe centrism.
I fuck with centrism.

It is deeply based in the sense of superiority and moral high ground. As all politics but this is a fundamental part of centrism. Centrism is saying "You all suck" I am better than you and enables feeling of superiority over the biggest swath of ~~Redditors~~ internet activists ๐Ÿค“ which is a lovely perk. It is a true essential trick of the ultimate hedonist. If politics were about sex, centrist would be someone jerking it off to the mirror.

I think you might've accidentally added sarcasm tags to your admission.

sarcasm tags are for the weak willed, we don't do such things even in the autism central online. What happens, happens

I have unironically read my comment 10 times already just to savor how perfectly and tastefully it is composed. Truly a masterpiece of some kind.
