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?"

centrist is fundamentally based on ignorance.

thinking the wealth of european countries comes from their own hard work, not colonialism and imperialism.

thinking we can maintain this wealth with our own "hard work".

then wondering why it doesnt work, and instead of questioning their underlying assumptions, they instead blame everyone else but them on why it doesnt work.

everyone else obv being immigrants, leftists, feminists, etc.

nourishing a far right mindset, not because they actually hate minorities and supporting the evil of empire, but simply bevause they don't know and dont want to learn.

that is centrism.
