    @FlyingSquid In my humble experience and understanding ‘centrism’ has been always an euphemism for ‘far right’ for the “politically correct” miserable cowards…

        @FMT99 Agree, but I don’t see this as a recent development. Dogmatic absolutism, or mere dogmatism, has been a very long and old issue -not just in the left, obviously.
        Anyway, about police, the problem ain’t single ones, but the social role that apparatus plays in the social regime. (Most police individuals usually came from the working class…)

      That’s quite a humble understanding imho. Centrists are technocratic. Evidence led, not ideological. Take good ideas from the centre right on regulating business and combine that with social policies from the left.

      The Nordic model basically.
