The centrists has their basic needs met and isn't part of a social group that is threatened so they see both as a waste of tax spending.

Maybe I’m the centrist in this scenario, but isn’t that just normal left? I’d expect far left to be like “we are going to exterminate all the rich then give their stuff to everyone else”

USA: we don't have a left. Democrats are at best center.

It says something, that securing people's basic needs is considered "far" left.

The answer is always in the middle. Let's do a little basic needs but only for the rich and a little genocide but only in the middle east

Tankies on Hexbear: Both fascists, you really shouldn't vote

People who already have their needs accounted for always seem so convinced that things will turn out hunky dory if things escalate to violence, and yet so rarely pass thought on the folks who are already struggling enough without The Troubles Part II Red Cap Boogaloo coming to a car bombing near them.

"Well I don't think we can meet everybody's needs so I'm unfortunately gonna have to side with the other movement, sorry!"

my team: perfect angels

your team: evil monsters

it literally does not matter what two groups you are comparing, if you sound like this then a lot of people are not going to engage

why do people say these thing when they know its not true

Well, it's hard to tell liberals and conservatives apart, mostly because liberalism isn't left wing, but actually slightly right from centre, and both liberalism and conservativism share some similarities.

This is what McCarthyism did. It's the great goal post mover.

Far centre: Would you guys just fuck already.

Leftists: never show up to vote

Also leftists: nothing ever gets done. Both parties must be the same

Edit:

More info from Pew 2022 election polls:

Age and the 2022 election Age continues to be strongly associated with voting preferences in U.S. elections. Nearly seven-in-ten voters under 30 (68%) supported Democratic candidates in 2022 – much higher than the shares of voters ages 30 to 49 (52%), 50 to 64 (44%) and 65 and older (42%) who did so. Compared with 2018, GOP candidates performed better among voters who turned out across age groups.

Also:

Older voters turned out more reliably in both elections – and continued to be largely loyal to Republican candidates.

It's funny to see people that have swallowed anti communist peograganda hook line and sinker flounder in here trying to discredit the far left.

centrists are usually right wing wanting the votes/approval from left

"I'm fiscally Republican and socially a Liberal" is another great line to hide behind.
