    If anything, it’s been proven time and time again that centrism doesn’t win elections. Centrism is a strategy where you adopt it and hope your opponents just fuck up horribly. You’re certainly not out to create a platform for change or chase votes. See the recent UK election for an example, the Tories collapsed but in actual numbers labour gained almost no ground. That’s almost an impressive amount of walking in a victory.
