In Marxism, centrism is an opportunistic current, originally represented by thinkers such as Karl Kautsky and the Austro-Marxists, which advocated for a non-existent "middle ground" between reformism and revolution. Stalin described centrism as the "subordination of the interests of the proletariat to the interests of the petit-bourgeoisie within one common party."[1]
Modern day Centrist Marxism is primarily represented by the online settler-strata-socialists in Statesian occupied Turtle Island, largely informed by the thought and works of (primarily) online figures such as Hasan Piker, "Woke Karen" and "Skip Intro", who platform a revival of Marxist Centrism oriented around an ambivalent or unclear support for revolution, adamant support for organizations such as the DSA and figures like Zohran Mamdani, and a strong affluence for the petit-bourgeoisie and the settler-strata proletariat while occasionally acknowledging the past struggles of anti-colonialism.
