It’s not entirely a bad idea to assert that things like equitable pay, Healthcare, food, education for kids etc etc are the base line and not remotely radical opinions to hold.
Look at the beleaguered “centrist” opinions we currently have that are actually quite radical: always stand for the flag, worship the troops, infinite bombs for Israel, reinforce the southern border, aim world ending nuclear weapons at the world we all share. I could go on. Shit is unhinged.
Yeah, I’m actually a bit of a centrist. I’m not about to support crazy shit like genocidal ethnostates, school lunch debt, or homelessness, you know? It’s like I’m cool with so much stuff until we get to unhinged things like the government or insurance companies getting between doctors and patients. I try to keep it chill and lowkey, so I’m not about to suggest police budgets over 10% of a city’s budget or letting rich people skimp out on taxes. So it’s like I’m not accepted on the right or the left. Like imagine how obscene it would be if the loony left did some authoritarian shit like “you have to buy my product!” so I want people to have a choice about whether or not they buy a car.

I want to liquidate CEOs. This is a popular and centrist position.
Bernie is basically all of this.
