I used to be an enlightened 'the truth is in the middle' centrist until I realized that the real world requires having actual ideals
Eventually you'll reach the point I did which is that ideals are great but are rarely ever realized, thus, compromise is essential.
Or you'll reach a point at which you develop real principles, such as "don't compromise with fascists like the KKK"
