"Centrists" are just right wing individuals who do not want to be seen as right wing publicly. They're quite literally there to facilitate a transition from whatever status quo to a more right-wing leaning one periodically.

This is easy to see whenever you have an election with a right-wing candidate and a ""center-left"" one. The right wing one wins - where all these extra votes came from?

Addendum: ""center-left"" does not exist and is an illusory political position.

Center left can exist because left/right is relative. They're ignorant to the fact that politicians to the left of them often achieve those center left wing policies in practice, while they often achieve pure centrism. Radical left wing change is harder than radical right wing change, so we need to push as left as possible
