Desperate centrists who believe the axiom that all of their beliefs represent reasonable moderate positions no matter what are some of the weirdest, most ingrown people next to rightwing chuds.

    I don't think this is even something centrist, centrism is all about blandness, a la "whatever doesn't offend people that aren't batshit insane".

    Maybe "centrist radicalism" is a better word, in that someone tries to gather everything crazy.

    As an anarchist/council communist, it is my belief that whether you are communist, socialist, christian democrat, liberal or not, as long as you oppose fascism and whatever's more right wing, you're my ally.

    Sure, with some I'll agree much more, and coordinate more. But either way, either someone's a fascist or is not. Those that aren't, oppose fascism, and therefore must be called upon to grow labour's democracy, as fascism is a danger to everyone, fascists themselves included.

    I see what you are saying and I am not arguing some opposite radicalism, but where your approach fails is that nobody is a monolith, we are many people in many different situations and it matters which version of people we feed energy and validation into... thus we must be concerned with how within each of us there are many potential fascist selves and thus what it means to be an antifascist/normal decent adult as a verb is to commit to continually re-examining the growth of our feelings and ideas and pruning away the things that begin to become ingrown.

    Also, what is considered bland and what is considered radical are some of the most political battlefields in society.
