If you break in a horse, it will do you now good to just demand he'll let you ride him. It will take forever & might make things worse.
But to be a centrist, you'd also have to oppose the other extreme - make atheism legal. Or you'd still be a radical but with modest goals.

Hm. Yes. I see your point. Don't need to oppose it, necessarily. Just suggest a more likely scenario in which you will succes more likely
-
I think you would have to. No-one believes ppl here is they claim to be a centrist but only oppose the left or right. They're right or left.
-
Hm...thinking about this one. Can you not be more radical left and accept smaller/moderate steps for the greater good?
-
Yes, but a radical lefty is a different thing to a centrist. A centrist would be genuinely committed to a middle position.
-
helps me to think of centrist as a political position on a spectrum, moderate is an attitude one, not necessarily on center.
-
Maybe that's it.
My idea would be to take the moderate road. Not necessarily the centrist position. -
a moderate conservative or moderate euro socialist is not, in most countries, a centrist. even more so to moderate political islam.
-
No. My point was that you'd still have a radical (end)position. So you actually aren't centrist at all. You just take a moderate approach
