Yeah I think this why I’m always sorta weirded out by rabid behavior from centrists. There’s a tacit subconscious understanding somewhere that tells me they don’t have significant beliefs, so how could they be so invested? But this and some of the other replies make a good case for why this might be so; they’re fighting for control and the maintenance of status, and any change, whether forward or backwards, must necessarily represent, by virtue of their constructed reality, a diminishment of their power and status.
