You might want to study history a bit more if you're going to try to make points based on it. It isn't and wasn't "centrists", it is and has been "right-wingers", also known these day as "conservatives" with a small "c" since there's nothing truly conservative about them.

Those fascists you see? They're not "centrists" in any sense of the word, despite just how badly you want to make that claim, the same sort of claim made, uh, MAGAs.
