Centrists favor selective governmental intervention and temporary affiliations with others. They take a strong stance on few issues, preferring the middle position in most matters. Centrists emphasize practical solutions to current public issues.

Furthermore, the old fashioned left-right model is fatally flawed. The model implies that if you "go too far" (i.e., are consistent) with any political idea, you end up, in some inexplicable way, at [[totalitarianism]] or anarchism, or maybe both. Pursue conservative thought to its logical extreme, according to this model, and you somehow end up at fascism, which is national socialism, or white supremacy or some other authoritarian position. If you pursue liberal thought too far, you supposedly end up at socialism or communism. This is inconsistent, and it ignores large philosophical differences between, liberalism and communism, and conservatism and fascism.

Furthermore, calling anarchism far right is also a misnomer, as there were plenty of explicit adherents to the far-left who dabbled in anarchism, including even the likes of Karl Marx (who advocated that true Communism would have the state fade away), and in fact, the founder of anarchism as a political movement, Pierre Joseph-Proudhon, also adhered to several far-left views such as anti-Semitism and even socialism, including declaring, a'la Jean Jacques Rousseau, that private property was theft.
