Moderate

The ire of left wingers and targets of assimilation for the right.

Not to be confused with centrist (who reject all left and right wing theories completely) moderates try to 'meet in the middle' and tout themselves as superior to either extremes, condemning both, particularly the left, as impractical.
The moderate may adopt talking points from either wing but generally tend to err on the side of conservatism, which you may expect given that so much of moderate rhetoric focuses on practicality as opposed to value.

The largest existing criticism of moderate political thought is that it considers the right and left to have equal credibility, even in their most extreme manifestations.

On one end, the furthest extreme of the left calls societal reconstruction; the rightmost for genocide. This is the position that says that the counter-protesters in Charlottesville are just as bad as those chanting 'Jews will not replace us' and went on to murder a woman and injure 14 others by running them down with a car. To present the view that society should serve all the people in it as being equal as all non-whites are inferior is cruel and disingenuous to the extreme.

To call for 'compromise' for the sake of practicality is to say that violence is permissible if it serves to maintain the status quo. That isn't practical, it's lazy.

Usage; Don't bother arguing with him--John's a moderate.

The moderate finds that conceding justice to violence is a necessary evil if society is to be maintained.
The critical realises that no society worth maintaining would permit violence so that it may be upheld.

moderation

The trait of lessening love at first sight in severity and intensity, so as not to disrupt the day to day life of another. Also, see sexy.

Pantyless cowgirls will not flee if taken in moderation!

moderate

A person who makes a point of not supporting any political viewpoint more than any other, thinking that this automatically makes them reasonable and intelligent.

By the way, "Proud Conservative," you're exactly the type of person who makes politics such a miserable shithole.

Moderation

Doing things with moderation and self control can sometimes be good. For every vegan, theres someone who likes a steak sometimes, but theres a difference in having a steak when you haven't had one in a while and you've been wanting one, and gobbling all the meat you can. Ice cream is the same way, toilet paper is the same way. Buying one pack of toilet paper instead of ten is possible, even if it's not easy in a pandemic.

Theres a difference in somebody really thinking they're invincible and immortal, and somebody feeling sure that they've done what they needed to do to keep going, moderation can sometimes be the difference.
