If you acknowledge one side as worse than another it isn't centrist. That would be taking a position.

The fence sitting of centrists say both sides are bad and not dealing with issues is why centrists are hated. They don't offer anything other than the 'Both Sides' argument.

At least that in what I have gathered my observations.

I understand the dislike for people that take no position whatsoever, but the hate for centrism I've seen extends beyond that. I've been called an enlightened centrist for simply not supporting either party, but I guess that might just mean those people were mistaken.

Did you offer a third opinion or did you just call them both bad?
