Dead Centrismball (formerly Radical Centrism) is the exact center ball. He is in the dead center of the political compass, which is where his name comes from. He is not towards [[File:Rightunity-yellow.png]] [[:Category:Right Unity|right]] or [[File:Leftunity.png]] [[:Category:Left Unity|left]], [[File:Libunity-yellow.png]] [[:Category:Libertarian Unity|libertarian]] or [[File:authunity.png]] [[:Category:Authoritarian Unity|authoritarian]], or anything at all. He isn't dead like his name implies, though he could be portrayed as such. He is the mascot of Polcompball, similar to how Polandball is to the Countryballs. He is also the only ball to change ideology from [[File:Radcent.png]] [[Radical Centrismball|radical centrism]] to dead centrism (the design used to be associated with [[File:Radcent.png]] [[Radical Centrismball|radical centrism]] instead of dead centrism).

This article is about the mascot of the subreddit and the strawman of Centrism. For other uses, see Centrism.

Dead Centrism is a ball inhabiting the exact center of the political compass and is the mascot of Polcompball. They believe the best solution to all problems is an exact compromise between all four quadrants.

They are also the only Polcompball who can accurately and fairly pinpoint any other polcompball on a political compass, as they have no bias like the others.
