I wouldn’t call myself that. Not on Lemmy and certainly not irl.
I usually manage to piss off both sides because whilst I do agree on a lot of things I usually fail to mention these ending up in listing the topics I disagree with them.
The word centrist itself it very relative as is “being right” and “being left”… one “being left” in the US would arguably be center right in many EU state. In the same way, “being center” on Lemmy means something entirely different than “being center” on X.
Tho I am certainly leaning more towards a certain ideology I do think that too much of it isn’t healthy as is with pretty much everything. And just like a wise man once said: “Only the Sith deal in absolutes!”
“… a based centrist appears”

Centrism is not a real thing. They were calling you a conservative basically.
Good thing I took it jokingly. I don’t need them to sour my day. ;)
