Why Centrism is Right Wing - How Centrists Enable the Far Right | Fellow Traveler

Not the only one. They are truly ideologically submerged.

The problem is that there are many issues where there is no "compromise" or centrist view available, so the "balanced" opinion just supports one or the other side fully.

Also makes it look like the USA has a serious fat left extremist problem, which is the opposite of the truth.

I haven't watched it yet either. But from looking at it I would assume is making a point about, how when you look at it. In terms of distances in 2d space. And not distances along an arbitrary curve. The far right and centrists are closer to each other. Which in the US is definitely the case. Especially considering our far left is solidly economically right wing.

The problem is that so called centrists aren't ideologically centrist. But reactionarily centrist. They don't have a guiding belief or principle beyond finding and occupying any imagined center they can. Even where no center exists.

I see the image more as centrists being as a similar level as the far right, just not quite as hurtful, and the far left is supporting the whole thing. Not that I agree with that, since analogies can only push a simplistic viewpoint.
