This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

A growing number of americans don't read newspapers. They get their news from online influencers. The right dominates the online ecosystem. (lemmy.world)

Someone else already replied, but I personally consider centrism as the whole middle range of the dial, so to speak, and not just the point directly in its "middle." So if someone is a corporate apologist and they maybe have some socially lefty views but then they regularly bag on actual leftists and espouse "abundance" that's basically a handout to real estate developers instead of actually addressing wealth inequality—then I consider them a centrist.
