Moreover, there isn't really a "leftism" or a "rightism". These aren't political ideologies, but vague directions of movement. They're umbrella terms. Communists, anarchists, socialists, social democrats, bleeding heart libertarians, establishment liberals etc. might all be described as being on the left but they hold substantively different views to one another. Likewise, one-nation Tories, ancaps, neocons, minarchists, paleocons, estoreric fascists, Strasserists etc. can all be described as being on the right, but they also all disagree.
A lot of what the center does isn't popular and would never win elections. Biden letting in millions of immigrants, the constant ratcheting up of the surveillance state by both typical conservatives and liberals, the Fed's commitment to a constant and 'normal' inflation rate. These are just things that have had clandestine elite support for a long time.
One could call One Billion Americans centrist extremism in this regard - it is obviously inane and will lead to bad outcomes, but one could see it plausibly occurring without any radical political changes.
