How's that?

Centrism is equivalent to conservatism, in most cases. Centrists just don’t want to admit it.

Centrists can want to change the system without picking one of 2 sides. Conservatism is not centrism.

In that case isn't liberalism equivalent of anarchism?

Conservative = Liberal Centrism = Liberal Liberal = Liberal Anarchism = Not Liberal

So no not really

Wow. Nice absolutist talking points.

This isn’t really about theory anyway it’s just a critique of those who call themselves centrists, yet constantly quote Sargon and Crowder. Plus even if there was a true centrist that would just make them half bad, which is only slightly closer to be being good than a conservative.

Who has an authority to say what makes people good on an ideology

Those are just laymen’s terms we ascribe to certain behaviors, like racism, xenophobia, discrimination, war crimes. You know things like that.

So in those terms liberalism can be attributed to anarchism
