That is because the political spectrum is not left/right. Which noone seems to get.
The political spectrum is a circle. With 'left and right' meeting at high-noon.
And conservative (the definition of centrist and doesn't like any kind of extreme....) is at 6-O'Clock.
That is what conservative is. It's not commie or facist. It is... in the middle. Never wanting to move from status-quo, either left or right.
But that's not what the corrupt, commie media wants to paint a conservative as. They want to call us fascist's at 1 O'Clock on the circie... or off to the right on the (false) line. The reality is that we liek the status quo. And are neither Commie, nor Fascist. We are about slow, deliberate, thought-out change.
