Enlightened Centrist

What political extremists call someone who proposed a reasonable and valid idea or opinions that the extremist cannot argue or refute because the person was right. Instead of opening dialogue about the topic or presenting evidence that disputes the persons the extremists shuts down the conversation by saying that their opinion isn’t valid because it’s “enlightened centrist bullshit.”

In the USA most often used by the progressive extremists in response to any criticism of their ideals, often defended as “morally” correct. Though uncommon, can and is used by conservative extremists in response to criticisms of their ideals, often defended as “tradition.”
Person 1: *valid and logical opinion or arguement*

Person 2: (shit this guy is right but it goes against my narrow and self righteous world view) SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU ENLIGHTENED CENTRIST NO ONE CARES

Logic-Centrist

The political affiliation which uses logical methods for understanding the various polarizing arguments and rationale; but focus on the majority political desire for a shared agenda of logic and inclusion.
I can understand why our country has both alt-right & extreme-left political affiliations and heritage; but I am always trying to stay a LOGIC-CENTRIST. Because it’s already the majority of this country’s people held beliefs.

Radical Centrist

Someone who, when discussing the issue of politics, believes that both (or all) sides of the political spectrum are equally bad and imcompitent in every way. This is often caused by a lack of political knowledge, the lack of care towards politics as a whole, or propaganda used to make a political party look worse than it actually is.

In contrast, traditional centrists vote for who they believe is a better candidate regardless of political position and use nuance and reasoning to determine who is worse.
Jimmy claimed he would not vote during this election because "both candidates are equally bad" despite one wanting to make billionaires pay more taxes and the other being extremely racist and sexist. It's pretty clear who's worse, he's just a radical centrist.

Enlightened Centrist

At least two types exist:

1. Person who claims to reject what they perceive as "both sides," while ignoring the realization that centrism carries the implication of embracing the virtues of both sides.

2. Person who claims to be moderate, yet exhibits a pattern of behavior that typically and exclusively defends or exempts one ideological belief from criticism.

This phrase is a tongue-in-cheek mockery, often cast upon those who lack self awareness; this flaw is commonly exhibited by those who want to be perceived as having risen above the standard, despite having obvious and often stereotypical biases.

Typically, the Enlightened Centrist takes what they perceive as a neutral position, by claiming "both sides" are flawed. However, the irony of this position is the complete disregard of the possibility that both sides sometimes may be right when it comes to certain issues. Thus, the "Enlightened Centrist" has inadvertently still chosen a partisan position while believing they have somehow conquered the conundrum of opposition.
Person 1: I voted for Joe Biden because I hate Trump. He's much worse.
Person 2: I've seen the results of both. I would rather have had Trump.
Person 1: Both sides are bad! But, I'll pick Biden over Trump any time.
Person 2: Yeah both parties suck, but you can't deny that Trump at least helped our economy.
Person 3: Can both of you Enlightened Centrists shut up? Both of them are morons.
Person 1: Oh, yeah? Then, who did you vote for?
Person 3: Bernie Sanders.
Person 2: ... And you call us "Enlightened Centrists?"

Example 2:

Person 1: I think the Israel and Palestine conflict is dumb. Both sides should stop the fighting.
Person 2: Okay, who stops first?
Person 1. Well, obviously Israel. They're acting out a genocide of Palestinian people.

Person 2: Who started this fight though?
Person 1: Well, obviously Israel. They started it hundreds of years ago when they stole Palestinian land!
Person 2: So, Israel should stop fighting and just let Palestine take their land back?
Person 1: No, no, that's not what I'm saying. I just want the fighting to end.
Person 2: ... By having Israel take the loss. You think you're being an enlightened Centrist, but you're clearly biased.
