- JumpCrisscross 4mo ago> "Centrist" in America is just "far-right but doesn't talk about it very loudly" Centrist in America means institutionalist, i.e. gunning for the status quo. That's going to piss off lefist and right-wing fanatics because both want to blow up the status quo. (They tend to be seen as a spoiler for progressives and conservatives. Think: Joe Manchin or Susan Collins.)
