When someone claims to be a moderate or a centrist due to a belief that both sides of the political spectrum are unreasonable or extreme. Typically used in a negative connotation.
Person 1: I refuse to join a political party because the left and the right have BOTH gone insane!

A diffuse, multifaceted movement intent upon darkening the door of the liberal commercial-democratic order ushered in by the Enlightenment. It is, by necessity and often also by preference, dissident. A common thread running through the disparate weavers of the DE fabric is the realization that the Enlightenment had a dark side and that the modes of thought and society that it steered us toward might lead ultimately to a dark place, an antithesis.
Some pithy things the Dark Enlightenment has to say regarding:
Gays--homophobia is not responsible for your astronomically high rates of suicide and drug abuse.
Feminists--there have historically been fewer female geniuses than men, and there always will be.
Black liberals--want to see a country looks like with no "white privilege"? Check out Liberia.
Neoconservatives--forcing democracy on inbred populations? At the barrel of a gun? Even my dog is smarter than that.
Asian men and black women--"society" isn't the only reason why you are considered less attractive by the opposite sex.
Education reformers--we all know why you never send your own kids to "diverse" urban schools.

A person who insists that they are "neither left nor right," but will near-exclusively attack the left and defend the right.
Elon Musk is an example of an enlightened centrist.

The state of a person after smoking a joint and drinking a warm cup of espresso coffee. One's mind is equal parts relaxed and hyper, allowing for optimal cognitive abilities.
"Tom was exhausted and stressed from studying. I guess you could say he got a little Heightened & Enlightened last night to cope!"
An Enlightened Centrist/Moderate is a nickname given to mock certain political commentators who call themselves centrists, when their rhetoric suggests otherwise. Unlike typical centrists, who are more balanced with their views and oppose political extremes, Enlightened Centrists use their platform to almost exclusively attack the left while never attacking the right. They go to such lengths to defend any right wing position, that they even do dishonest research and present misinformation that serves a right-wing viewpoint. They don't give the left any charitable interpretation of what they say and often straw man and gaslight the left, especially when the left is calling out alt-right propaganda. These types of centrists have also proven to be Useful idiots for the alt-right, often jumping to the defense of alt-right figures who spin any challenge or opposition to their rhetoric or punishment for their actions as an "attack on free speech". This type of gullibility and manipulation has been proven to be a recruiting method for the alt-right as is presents the alt-righters as misunderstood centrists themselves, who are being silenced by the "evil SJWs", causing the Enlightened Centrist's audience to become sympathetic towards them, and eager to visit their platform, where the radicalization will take place. Enlightened Cenrists are centrists in name only, and should not be trusted.
Person 1: The "OK" hand-sign has been co-opted by white supremacists and has been turned into a racist dog whistle
Person 2: OH, SO NOW THE OK HAND-SIGN IS RACIST?!?! THESE SJWS THINK EVERYTHING IS RACIST!!!!!!
Person 3: No, Person 1 didn't say the okay the "OK" hand-sign is racist, but that racist have turned it into a signal. You Enlightened Centrist types really need to stop being so gullible
