centrist

A political ideology that falls directly in between the left and right political extremes. Centrist ideology stresses practical and realistic solutions without the partisan problems associated with solutions from Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians and others. Centrists also believe that the government serves as a means to keep individual liberties in check. Centrists, however, are not a mixture and ideological stances from left and right.

A centrist might say:

"Abortion is a decision between a mother and her doctor, however, abortion should not be available all the time."

or

"To save social security, privatization of a small portion of it via market investment may help. The option to invest a portion of retirement savings should exist for individuals."

Centrist

A person who agrees with some of right wing and left wing ideologies - completely agreeing with neither of the ideologies. They aren't exactly the "middle ground", rather combination of both.

A centrist might be against political correctness (right wing) but also be pro-choice (left wing).

centrist

A person who seeks to find a balanced point between ideological extremes.

I am a centrist. I am a vegetarian who doesn't like left-wing liberals and I am married and have kids and live in a small town in a Western state, but I don't like right wing conservatives.

Murica-Centrism

The act of making Free, glorious and Angelic America the centre of everything.

If Aliens from outer space were to attack another planet (not ours and not any close to us and we didn't even know about it) how it affect America

Why does everybody give England credit for winning the English civil war, why not Murica?

"Mate that guy literally thinks America is the nation responsible for inventing gunpowder, it wasn't even a country"
"Yeah, that chap is definitely a Murica-Centrism supporter"

Aneutral Centrism

Having a mix of left and right wing beliefs and not adhering to either left or right wing ideology. Aneutral centrists listen to both sides before makimg a judgement and make decisions based on fact as opposed to whether something is left or right wing. This differs from typical centrism in that aneutral centrists do not solely have neutral views.

Origin: "A-" (meaning "not") + "Neutral" and "Centrism".

I look at the facts before making a decision. I believe in gun control which is right wing but also believe in democracy which is left wing. I follow aneutral centrism.

wet student centrist

A person usually a uni student that has no opinion, has little to none to contribute in a conversation because it has been brainwashed by leftist ideology and media outlets as cnn or other generic channels.

I´m not going to continue this conversation because you´re acting like a wet student centrist.
